Chromosomal localisation of a pseudoautosomal growth gene(s).
Although recent molecular studies in patients with sex chromosome aberrations are consistent with a growth gene(s) being present in the pseudoautosomal region (PAR), the precise location has not been determined. In this report, we describe a Japanese boy and his mother with an interstitial deletion in Xp22.3 and review the correlation between genotype and stature in six cases of partial monosom...
متن کاملChromosomal localisation of a Y specific growth gene(s).
Although a Y specific growth gene(s) has been postulated in the Yq11 region, the precise location has not been determined. To localise the growth gene(s), we correlated genotype with stature in 13 Japanese and four European non-mosaic adult male patients with a partial Yq deletion. Fourteen patients preserving the region between DYS11 and DYS246 did not have short stature (11 Japanese, 165-180 ...
متن کاملPseudoautosomal genes in man.
MIC2, which encodes the 12E7 antigen, is the only well-defined pseudoautosomal gene in man. We have isolated cDNA and genomic sequences corresponding to MIC2 and have produced monoclonal antibodies reacting with the 12E7 antigen. These molecular tools have been used to investigate the genetics and biochemistry of the MIC2 system. Recent results suggest that MIC2 is the most proximal of the curr...
متن کاملHigh mutation rates in human and ape pseudoautosomal genes.
It has been suggested that recombination may be mutagenic, which, if true, would inflate intraspecies diversity and interspecies silent divergence in regions of high recombination. Here, we test this hypothesis comparing human/orangutan genome-wide non-coding divergence (K) to that in the pseudoautosomal genes which were reported to recombine much more frequently than the rest of the genome. We...
متن کاملRecombination and nucleotide diversity in the sex chromosomal pseudoautosomal region of the emu, Dromaius novaehollandiae.
Pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) shared by avian Z and W sex chromosomes are typically small homologous regions within which recombination still occurs and are hypothesized to share the properties of autosomes. We capitalized on the unusual structure of the sex chromosomes of emus, Dromaius novaehollandiae, which consist almost entirely of PAR shared by both sex chromosomes, to test this hypothes...
