The increase in DNA copy number in Down syndrome (DS; caused by trisomy 21) has led to the DNA dosage hypothesis, which posits that the level of gene expression is proportional to the gene’s DNA copy number. Yet many reports have suggested that a proportion of chromosome 21 genes are dosage compensated back towards typical expression levels (1.0×). In contrast, other reports suggest that dosage compensation is not a common mechanism of gene regulation in trisomy 21, providing support to the DNA dosage hypothesis. In our work, we use both simulated and real data to dissect the elements of differential expression analysis that can lead to the appearance of dosage compensation, even when compensation is demonstrably absent. Using lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from a family with an individual with Down syndrome, we demonstrate that dosage compensation is nearly absent at both nascent transcription (GRO-seq) and steady-state RNA (RNA-seq) levels. Furthermore, we link the limited apparent dosage compensation to expected allelic variation in transcription levels. Transcription dosage compensation does not occur in Down syndrome. Simulated data containing no dosage compensation can appear to have dosage compensation when analyzed via standard methods. Moreover, some chromosome 21 genes that appear to be dosage compensated are consistent with allele specific expression.
