Retroposition of autosomal mRNA yielded testis-specific gene family on
human Y chromosomeBruce T Lahn
& David C Page | | | | Figure 2. Comparison of transcripts and encoded proteins from mouse Cdyl,
human CDYL and human CDY1 genes.
Exons are numbered; positions of introns are indicated. Black and grey
bars depict translated regions. Percentage identities are shown in several
regions for both DNA and predicted amino acid sequences; na, not applicable.
Note: 64% nucleotide identity was observed between the 3´ portion of
human CDYL transcript and the intron/second exon of human CDY1
minor transcript. Sequence similarity between CDY1 genomic locus and
CDYL falls abruptly (to less than 50% nucleotide identity) at both the 5´
and 3´ ends: immediately 5´ of CDYL exon 4, and 3´
of the polyadenylation site of CDY1 minor transcript. Poly(A) tracts,
including alternative locations observed in some cDNA clones, are indicated.
