TLDR
A gene mapping to the sex-determining region of the mouse Y chromosome is deleted in a line of XY female mice mutant for Tdy, and is expressed at a stage during male gonadal development consistent with its having a role in testis determination.
Abstract
A gene mapping to the sex-determining region of the mouse Y chromosome is deleted in a line of XY female mice mutant for Tdy, and is expressed at a stage during male gonadal development consistent with its having a role in testis determination. This gene is a member of a new family of at least five mouse genes, related by an amino-acid motif showing homology to other known or putative DNA-binding domains.

Partial Gonadal Dysgenesis in a Patient With a Marker Y Chromosome

TL;DR: It is possible that the clinical phenotype in the patient with partial gonadal dysgenesis results from a Y chromosomal defect in sequences flanking TDF, which reduces the function of both TDF and the "anti-Turner" genes.

Gender verification in sports by PCR amplification of SRY and DYZ1 Y chromosome specific sequences: presence of DYZ1 repeat in female athletes.

TL;DR: Amplification of DYZ1 repeat should not be used as the only index for determining genetic sex, at least in sporting events.

Dosage-sensitive functions in embryonic development drove the survival of genes on sex-specific chromosomes in snakes, birds, and mammals

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors carried out a meta-analysis of survival across 41 species-three snakes, 24 birds, and 14 mammals-doubling the number of ancestral genes under investigation and increasing their power to detect enrichments among survivors relative to nonsurvivors.

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.
