Origin and evolution of spermatogenesis genes on the human sex chromosomes.

Society of Reproduction and Fertility supplement - 1 Jan 2007

Delbridge Margaret L, Graves Jennifer A Marshall

Abstract excerpt

Both the X and Y chromosomes have a remarkable enrichment of genes involved in gonadogenesis and gametogenesis. The small Y chromosome contains the sex determining gene SRY, as well as many genes that are critical for spermatogenesis and are expressed exclusively in the testis. The X chromosome, too, is enriched for genes involved in sex and reproduction. This biased gene content can be best understood in terms...
