蛋白名称
Sex-determining region Y protein
免疫原
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human SRY. AA range:51-100
特异性
SRY Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of SRY protein.
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
其他名称
SRY; TDF; Sex-determining region Y protein; Testis-determining factor
背景
This intronless gene encodes a transcription factor that is a member of the high mobility group (HMG)-box family of DNA-binding proteins. This protein is the testis-determining factor (TDF), which initiates male sex determination. Mutations in this gene give rise to XY females with gonadal dysgenesis (Swyer syndrome); translocation of part of the Y chromosome containing this gene to the X chromosome causes XX male syndrome.

功能
disease:Defects in SRY are a cause of gonadal dysgenesis XY female type (GDXY) [MIM:306100]; also known as 'XY females' or Swyer syndrome. Patients are found to have a 46,XY karyotype. They suffer rapid and early degeneration of their gonads, which are present in the adult as 'streak gonads', consisting mainly of fibrous tissue and variable amounts of ovarian stroma. As a result these patients do not develop secondary sexual characteristics at puberty. The external genitalia in these subjects are completely female, and Muellerian structures are normal. In contrast, subjects with 46,XY partial gonadal dysgenesis have ambiguous genitalia, a mix of Muellerian and Wolffian structures, and dysgenic gonads.,disease:Defects in SRY are a cause of true hermaphroditism [MIM:235600]. A true hermaphrodite must have both mature ovarian and mature testicular tissue with histologic evidence of follicle
