Abstract excerpt
Several genes are found on both the human X and Y chromosomes in regions that do not recombine during male meiosis. In each case, nucleotide sequence analysis suggests that these X-Y gene pairs encode similar but nonidentical proteins. Here we show that the human Y- and X-encoded ribosomal protei...
