HEAT-SHOCK TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR, Y-LINKED; HSFY


HGNC Approved Gene Symbol: HSFY1

Cytogenetic location: Yq11.222     Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): Y:18,529,643-18,588,963 (from NCBI)


TEXT

Cloning and Expression

Skaletsky et al. (2003) determined that the HSFY gene is expressed exclusively in testis.


Mapping

Skaletsky et al. (2003) determined that there are 2 palindromic copies of the HSFY gene within palindrome 4 of chromosome Yq. The HSFY gene is located in the male-specific region of chromosome Y (MSY), which is not involved in X-Y crossover events. There is no X-linked homolog of HSFY.
