The sequences of the human sex chromosomes.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Jun 2006

Ross Mark T, Bentley David R, Tyler-Smith Chris

Abstract excerpt

The sequences of both of the human sex chromosomes and of a substantial part of the chimpanzee Y chromosome have now been determined, and most of the protein-coding genes have been identified. The X chromosome codes for more than 800 proteins but the Y chromosome for only approximately 60, illustrating their very different evolutionary histories since their origin from an autosomal pair approximately 300 million...
