Abstract excerpt
In order to evaluate the role of SRY in the determination of the testis, we sequenced the conserved domain of the SRY gene in 8 patients with 46,XY gonadal dysgenesis and 3 patients with related disorders, and compared our data with those obtained in 6 other similar studies. In our study, a 609-bp fragment of SRY was amplified by the polymerase chain reaction and the internal conserved motif was sequenced. SRY...
