Abstract excerpt
Deletions of 9p have been associated with 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis, and the smallest region of overlap has been mapped to the tip of chromosome 9. Two candidate genes (DMRT1 and 2) have been found in the region. Despite intensive mutation searches, no mutations have been detected in these genes. To gain insights into the genomics of the region and to isolate other candidate genes for the phenotype, we have...
