Structural variation on the short arm of the human Y chromosome: recurrent multigene deletions encompassing Amelogenin Y

Structural polymorphism is increasingly recognized as a major form of human genome variation, and is particularly prevalent on the Y chromosome. Assay of the Amelogenin Y gene (AMELY) on Yp is widely used in DNA-based sex testing, and sometimes reveals males who have interstitial deletions. In a col... View More
