a, Schematic representation of the whole chromosome, including the pseudoautosomal and heterochromatic regions. b, Enlarged view of a 24-Mb portion of the MSY, extending from the proximal boundary of the Yp pseudoautosomal region to the proximal boundary of the large heterochromatic region of Yq. Shown are three classes of euchromatic sequences, as well as heterochromatic sequences. A 1-Mb bar indicates the scale of the diagram. c, d, Gene, pseudogene and interspersed repeat content of three euchromatic sequence classes. c, Densities (numbers per Mb) of coding genes, non-coding transcription units, total transcription units and pseudogenes. d, Percentages of nucleotides contained in Alu, retroviral, LINE1 and total interspersed repeats. The data shown in c and d are available in numerical form in Supplementary Tables 6 and 7. Supplementary Table 6 also provides information about the size and (G + C) content of each sequence class.
