DMRT1 in a ratite bird: evidence for a role in sex determination and discovery of a putative regulatory element

1 Jan 2002

Abstract excerpt

Unlike mammals, birds have a ZZ male/ZW female sex-determining system. In most birds, the Z is large and gene rich, whereas the W is small and heterochromatic, but the ancient group of ratite birds are characterized by sex chromosomes that are virtually homomorphic. Any gene differentially present on the ratite Z and W is therefore a strong candidate for a sex-determining role. We have cloned part of the...
