Vertebrate Sex Determination: A New Player in the Field
نویسنده
چکیده
Sex-determining genes have been identified in flies, worms and mammals but not, until recently, in non-mammalian vertebrates. Now, a gene has been isolated from the Y chromosome of the teleost fish medaka that is functionally comparable to the mammalian testis-determining gene, Sry.

متن کاملTemperature-dependent sex determination: upregulation of SOX9 expression after commitment to male development.
In mammals, birds and reptiles the morphological development of the gonads appear to be conserved. This conservation is evident despite the different sex determining switches employed by these vertebrate groups. Mammals exhibit chromosomal sex determination (CSD) where the key sex determining switch is the Y-linked gene, SRY. Although SRY is the trigger for testis determination in mammals, it i...
