Sxl protein mediates differential expression of genes further downstream in the developmental pathway

In females, active Sxl protein produced from Pm leads toproduction of proteins that facilitate female developmentā€”first Tra protein, which then, with Tra-2, facilitates splicing of the mRNA for active Dsx protein. In males: A. the absence of Sxl leads to a different splicing pattern of tra transcripts; a different version of Dsx isproduced that leads to male development. B. transcription from promoter Pe results in acharacteristic splicing pattern and the production of a burst of active Sxl protein. C. only stop codons are recognized, leading to splicing of Tra and overactivity of SxI. D. the start codons are preferentially removed in splicing, causing a premature termination of Dsx translation leading to male development.
