Chromosomal 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 کاملChromosomal 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 کاملY-chromosomal genes affecting male fertility: A review
The mammalian sex-chromosomes (X and Y) have evolved from autosomes and are involved in sex determination and reproductive traits. The Y-chromosome is the smallest chromosome that consists of 2-3% of the haploid genome and may contain between 70 and 200 genes. The Y-chromosome plays major role in male fertility and is suitable to study the evolutionary relics, speciation, and male infertility a...
متن کاملA Journey on Y Chromosomal Genes and Male Infertility
In the course of evolution Y chromosome has acquired an important role in sex determination owing to the differentiation of the SRY gene from its X homologue. Apart from the functionally specialized SRY gene, the Y chromosome harbors several genes responsible for normal fertility. Three different spermatogenic loci namely AZFa, AZFb and AZFc located in the long arm of Y chromosome (Yq) has the ...
متن کاملInterspecific divergence, intrachromosomal recombination, and phylogenetic utility of Y-chromosomal genes in Drosophila.
Reconstruction of phylogenetic relationships among recently diverged species is complicated by three general problems: segregation of polymorphisms that pre-date species divergence, gene flow during and after speciation, and intra-locus recombination. In light of these difficulties, the Y chromosome offers several important advantages over other genomic regions as a source of phylogenetic infor...
