Dosage regulation, and variation in gene expression and copy number of human Y chromosome ampliconic genes.

The Y chromosome harbors nine multi-copy ampliconic gene families expressed exclusively in testis. The gene copies within each family are >99% identical to each other, which poses a major challenge in evaluating their copy number. Recent studies demonstrated high variation in Y ampliconic gene co...
