Molecular Characterization of Heat Shock-Like Factor Encoded on the Human Y Chromosome, and Implications for Male Infertility1
1 Jul 2004
Abstract excerpt
Azoospermia and oligospermia are major causes of male infertility. Some genes located on the Y chromosome are suggested as candidates. Recently, HSFY, which is similar to the HSF (heat shock transcription factor) family, has been mapped on the human Y chromosome as multicopies. However, newly available sequence data deposited at NCBI shows that only the HSFY gene located on Yq has a long open reading frame...
