M31, a murine homolog of Drosophila HP1, is concentrated in the XY body during spermatogenesis.

Cytogenetics and cell genetics - 1 Jan 1999

Motzkus D, Singh P B, Hoyer-Fender S

Abstract excerpt

The formation of the sex vesicle, or XY body, during male meiosis and pairing of the sex chromosomes are thought to be essential for successful spermatogenesis. Despite its cytological discovery a century ago, the mechanism of XY body formation, particularly heterochromatinization of the sex chromosomes, has remained unclear. The HP1 class of chromobox genes are thought to encode proteins involved in the...
