Retinoic acid regulates sex-specific timing of meiotic initiation in mice.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the mechanism underlying the sex-specific timing of Stra8 expression and meiotic initiation in mice and showed that signaling by retinoic acid (RA), an active derivative of vitamin A, is required for Stra8expression and thereby meiosis initiation in embryonic ovaries.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive genetic map of the mouse genome

TL;DR: The final report of the concerted effort to produce a dense genetic map of the laboratory mouse contains 7,377 genetic markers, consisting of 6,580 highly informative simple sequence length polymorphisms integrated with 797 restriction fragmentlength polymorphisms in mouse genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The sex-determining region of the human Y chromosome encodes a finger protein

TL;DR: The possibility that the Y-encoded finger protein is the testis-determining factor is discussed, and models of sex determination accommodating the finding of a related locus on the X chromosome are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional coherence of the human Y chromosome.

TL;DR: A systematic search of the nonrecombining region of the human Y chromosome (NRY) identified 12 novel genes or families, 10 with full-length complementary DNA sequences, which may account for infertility among men with Y deletions.
