A new topology of the human Y chromosome haplogroup E1b1 (E-P2) revealed through the use of newly characterized binary polymorphisms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Haplogroup E1b1, defined by the marker P2, is the most represented human Y chromosome haplogroup in Africa. A phylogenetic tree showing the internal structure of this haplogroup was published in 2008.

Unique profile of ordered arrangements of repetitive elements in the C57BL/6J mouse genome implicating their functional roles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The entirety of all protein coding sequences is reported to represent a small fraction (~2%) of the mouse and human genomes; the vast majority of the rest of the genome is presumed to be repetitive elements (REs).

Divergent Human Y-Chromosome Microsatellite Evolution Rates [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Evolution, 1999 In this work, we analyze several characteristics influencing the low variability of the microsatellite DYS19 in the major founder Amerindian Y chromosome lineage containing the point mutation DYS199-T. Variation of DYS19 was compared with that of five other Y-linked tetranucleotide repeat loci (DYS389A, DYS389B, DYS390, DYS391, and DYS393) in the ...

Roles of the Y chromosome genes in human cancers
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2015 Male and female differ genetically by their respective sex chromosome composition, that is, XY as male and XX as female. Although both X and Y chromosomes evolved from the same ancestor pair of autosomes, the Y chromosome harbors male-specific genes ...

Human Evolution: Y-chromosome clues to human ancestry [PDF]
Current Biology, 1995 The case for a recent expansion of modern humans from Africa has been strengthened by the finding of monomorphism in part of a Y-linked gene, consistent with the low variability seen in human mitochondrial DNAs.

Cell GenomicsSummary: Recent in vitro studies of human sex chromosome aneuploidy showed that the Xi (“inactive” X) and Y chromosomes broadly modulate autosomal and Xa (“active” X) gene expression. We tested these findings in vivo.

Evolutionary dynamics of the human pseudoautosomal regions.
PLoS Genetics, 2021 Recombination between the X and Y human sex chromosomes is limited to the two pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) that present quite distinct evolutionary origins.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
