Abstract excerpt
Testis-specific protein, Y-encoded, 1 (TSPY1) is involved in the regulation of spermatogenic efficiency via highly variable copy dosage, with dosage deficiency of the multicopy gene conferring an increased risk of spermatogenic failure. TSPY-like 1 (TSPYL1) and TSPY-like 5 (TSPYL5), two autosomal homologous genes originating from TSPY1, share a core sequence that encodes a functional nucleosome assembly protein...
