Y-chromosome evolution: emerging insights into processes of Y-chromosome degeneration [PDF]
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2013 The human Y chromosome is intriguing not only because it harbours the master-switch gene that determines gender but also because of its unusual evolutionary history. The Y chromosome evolved from an autosome, and its evolution has been characterized by massive gene decay.

Minisatellites of the Y Chromosome
1994In recent years, the use of VNTR polymorphisms has became one of the most successful changes in the field of forensic medicine for personal identification and paternity testing. VNTR sequences have been identified on all human chromosomes and usually they map at or close to the telomers (1).

Most of the length of the Y chromosome escapes recombination with the X chromosome and is strictly paternally inherited. This has profound evolutionary implications and provides (together with the matrilineal mitochondrial DNA) unique tools in human population genetics.

Sex chromosome constitution vary genetically in both genders, such as XY in male and XX in female. Even though the chromosomes X and Y advanced from the autosomal pair of the same ancestor, male-specific genes were harbored by the Y chromosome. This Y chromosome plays a crucial role in germ cell differentiation, sex determination in males, and numerous

Deletion of the long arm of the Y chromosome and review of Y chromosome abnormalities
American Journal of Medical Genetics, 1985AbstractWe report on a patient whose karyotype is 45,X/46,Xdel(Y) (pter→q11.212). We also present a review of literature on the Y chromosome in which evidence is presented that there are genes on the Y chromosome that prevent Ullrich‐Turner syndrome manifestations; aid in testes maturation and spermatogenesis; and affect height, tooth size, and bone ...

Three dicentric Y chromosomes*
Annals of Human Genetics, 1970SUMMARYThree females, two with gonadal dysgenesis, are discussed who were chromatin negative and chromosomally showed mosaicism with two cell lines. One line was 45, X and the other had 46 chromosomes one of which was clearly dicentric in most cells and interpreted as a relatively stable dicentric Y isochromosome.

The evolution of the mammalian Y chromosome
Behavior Genetics, 1990There is a predominant theory for the evolution of the mammalian Y chromosome. This theory hypothesizes that genes for sex determination and male-specific traits, as well as sequences for X-Y meiotic pairing, are conserved on the mammalian Y chromosome across all lineages and that all other Y chromosomal genes or sequences have been or will be lost in ...
