Summary
This region is known to undergo recombination with another region, the AZFb P4.1 recombination region, located about 7 Mb centromere-proximal to this region. Recombination between these regions can result in a deletion of the large intervening sequence, and is known as a P4/distal-P1 deletion, causing azoospermia. Recombination is not thought to occur as a result of homologous recombination, since these regions do not share high sequence identity. This region is contained within a large palindromic region known as P1 (palindrome 1). AZFa, AZFb, and AZFc have been defined as regions on chromosome Yq11, each containing multiple genes. Deletions in any of these regions can cause spermatogenic defects. Recombination between this region and the AZFb P4.1 recombination region removes the AZFb and part of the AZFc region.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
