RIBOSOMAL PROTEIN S4, Y-LINKED, 2; RPS4Y2


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: RPS4Y2

Cytogenetic location: Yq11.223   Genomic coordinates (GRCh38) : Y:20,756,108-20,781,032 (from NCBI)


TEXT

▼ Cloning and Expression

Skaletsky et al. (2003) determined that the RPS4Y2 gene shares 93.6% nucleotide identity with the RPS4Y gene (470000) within the coding exons, but the intronic sequences are much more divergent. RPS4Y2, like RPS4Y, is a full-length homolog of the X-linked RPS4X (312760) gene. Skaletsky et al. (2003) stated that the RPS4Y2 gene is ubiquitously expressed.


▼ Mapping

Skaletsky et al. (2003) determined that RPS4Y2 is a single-copy gene that maps to chromosome Yq. It is located in the male-specific region of chromosome Y (MSY), which is not involved in X-Y crossover events.

The male-specific region of the human Y chromosome is a mosaic of discrete sequence classes. Nature 423: 825-837, 2003. [PubMed: 12815422, related citations] [Full Text]
