A model system for study of sex chromosome effects on sexually dimorphic neural and behavioral traits [PDF]
We tested the hypothesis that genes encoded on the sex chromosomes play a direct role in sexual differentiation of brain and behavior. We used mice in which the testis-determining gene (Sry) was moved from the Y chromosome to an autosome (by deletion of ...

Cbx2, a Polycomb Group Gene, Is Required for Sry Gene Expression in Mice [PDF]
Mice lacking the function of the polycomb group protein CBX2 (chromobox homolog 2; also known as M33) show defects in gonadal, adrenal, and splenic development. In particular, XY knockout (KO) mice develop ovaries but not testes, and the gonads are hypoplastic in both sexes.

Sex determination in mythology and history [PDF]
The history of ideas on how the sexes became divided spans at least three thousand years. The biblical account of the origin of Eve, and the opinions of the philosophers of classical Greece, have unexpected bearings on present-day ideas.

Molecular study of developmental sex disorders in children
Background: Sex determination and differentiation in humans are processes that involve the interaction of several genes such as SRY, SOX9 genes which are important in the development of the male genital system.

The study of a hermaphroditic sheep caused by a mutation in the promoter of SRY gene
In mammals, sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene plays vital role as a transcription factor to regulate the expression of the genes contributing to development of male genitals.

Background 46,XX male disorders of sex development are rare. Approximately 80% of cases of testicular tissue differentiation may be due to translocation of SRY to the X chromosome or an autosome. SRY-negative 46,XX males show overexpression of pro-testis

Sex determination from dental pulp DNA among Egyptians
Background A great challenge arises when sex determination of human remains is needed, especially when only, bone fragments or isolated teeth are available; such as in mass disasters.

Regulation of multiple renin–angiotensin system genes by Sry [PDF]
We demonstrated that the Sry gene complex on the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) Y chromosome is a candidate locus for hypertension that accounts for the SHR Y chromosome blood pressure effect. All rat strains examined to date share six Sry loci, and a seventh Sry locus (Sry3) appears to be unique to SHR male rats.

Sexual differentiation of the brain: investigating the role of Sry using animal models [PDF]
Recent findings have challenged the dogma that gonadal hormones are the sole factor mediating sexual differentiation of the mammalian brain, and have highlighted the importance of sex-linked genes in this process, either independently, or in combination ...
