A gene from the human sex-determining region encodes a protein with homology to a conserved DNA-binding motif

TL;DR: A search of a 35-kilobase region of the human Y chromosome necessary for male sex determination has resulted in the identification of a new gene, termed SRY (for sex-determining region Y) and proposed to be a candidate for the elusive testis-d determining gene, TDF.
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

The human Y chromosome: a 43-interval map based on naturally occurring deletions.

TL;DR: A deletion map of the human Y chromosome was constructed by testing 96 individuals with partial Y chromosomes for the presence or absence of many DNA loci, and should be useful in identifying Y chromosomal genes, in exploring the origin of chromosomal disorders, and in tracing the evolution of the Y chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Y chromosome microdeletions and alterations of spermatogenesis.

TL;DR: A clear correlation exists between the size and localization of the deletions and the testicular phenotype, however, it is clear that larger deletions are associated with the most severe testicular damage.

Detection of specific sequences among DNA fragments separated by gel electrophoresis.

TL;DR: This paper describes a method of transferring fragments of DNA from agarose gels to cellulose nitrate filters that can be hybridized to radioactive RNA and hybrids detected by radioautography or fluorography.

Analysis of human Y-chromosome-specific reiterated DNA in

TL;DR: A number of individuals with aberrant Y chromosomes have been tested for the presence of Y-chromo-some-specific reiterated DNA as discussed by the authors, which represents at least 10% of Y chromosome DNA.

Y-encoded, species-specific DNA in mice: Evidence that the Y chromosome exists in two polymorphic forms in inbred strains

TL;DR: Examination of polymorphic Y chromosome restriction fragments in male DNA from nine different inbred strains suggests that only two polymorphic forms of Y chromosomal DNA exist among inbreeding strains of mice.
