AZFa candidate gene UTY and its X homologue UTX are expressed in human germ cells
The Ubiquitous Transcribed Y (UTY a.k.a. KDM6C) AZFa candidate gene on the human Y chromosome and its paralog on the X chromosome, UTX (a.k.a. KDM6A), encode a histone lysine demethylase removing chromatin H3K27 methylation marks at genes transcriptional start sites for activation. Both proteins har...
