X chromosome dosage and presence of SRY shape sex-specific differences in DNA methylation at an autosomal region in human cells

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences, 2018
Background Sexual dimorphism in DNA methylation levels is a recurrent epigenetic feature in different human cell types and has been implicated in predisposition to disease, such as psychiatric and autoimmune disorders. To elucidate the genetic origins of

Early events in the evolution of the Silene latifolia Y chromosome: Male specialization and recombination arrest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Understanding the origin and evolution of sex chromosomes requires studying recently evolved X-Y chromosome systems such as those in some flowering plants.

Loss of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP3K4) reveals a requirement for MAPK signalling in mouse sex determination.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2009
Sex determination in mammals is controlled by the presence or absence of the Y-linked gene SRY. In the developing male (XY) gonad, sex-determining region of the Y (SRY) protein acts to up-regulate expression of the related gene, SOX9, a transcriptional ...

A chromosome-level genome assembly of Hong Kong catfish (Clarias fuscus) uncovers a sex-determining region

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background Hong Kong catfish (Clarias fuscus) is an ecologically and economically important species that is widely distributed in freshwater regions of southern China. Hong Kong catfish has significant sexual growth dimorphism. The genome assembly of the

A genetic basis for a postmeiotic X versus Y chromosome intragenomic conflict in the mouse. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Intragenomic conflicts arise when a genetic element favours its own transmission to the detriment of others. Conflicts over sex chromosome transmission are expected to have influenced genome structure, gene regulation, and speciation.

Fast and non-invasive PCR sexing of primates: apes, Old World monkeys, New World monkeys and Strepsirrhines

open access: yesBMC Ecology, 2006
Background One of the key tools for determining the social structure of wild and endangered primates is the ability to sex DNA from small amounts of non-invasive samples that are likely to include highly degraded DNA.

Structural Mechanism behind Distinct Efficiency of Oct4/Sox2 Proteins in Differentially Spaced DNA Complexes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (Oct4) and sex-determining region Y (SRY)-box 2 (Sox2) proteins induce various transcriptional regulators to maintain cellular pluripotency.
