Functional analysis of <i>Mmd2</i> and related <i>PAQR</i> genes during sex determination in mice

2021-07-11

Abstract excerpt

Sex determination in eutherian mammals is controlled by the Y-linked gene Sry , which drives the formation of testes in male embryos. Despite extensive study, the genetic steps linking Sry action and male sex determination remain largely unknown. Here, we focused on Mmd2 , a gene that encodes a member of the progestin and adipoQ receptor (PAQR) family. We show that Mmd2 is expressed during the sex-determining...
