Candidate testis-determining gene, Maestro (Mro), encodes a novel HEAT repeat protein.
Mammalian sex determination depends on the presence or absence of SRY transcripts in the embryonic gonad. Expression of SRY initiates a pathway of gene expression resulting in testis development. Here, we describe a novel gene potentially functioning in this pathway using a cDNA microarray screen fo...
