  2. ...in placental mammals and marsupials is determined by the SRY gene located on the Y chromosome. This major sex determinant arose ∼166 million years ago (Mya) on an ancestral autosome as an allele of the SOX3 gene ( Veyrunes et al. 2008 ). As is commonly observed for chromosomes carrying sex-determining genes...
  3. ...that they were present on the therian proto-X chromosome. Their presence also on platypus chromosome 6 implies that they were present on the ancestral mammal autosome that became the proto-X when its partner acquired a sexdetermining gene. We have shown that six of these genes are located on chromosome 4...
  4. ...queried (chicken, zebra finch, and turkey). This implies that H2A.Rs and short histone H2A variants evolved exclusively in the mammalian lineage, after the split from birds. Like canonical H2A, H2A.R, H2A.B, H2A.L, H2A.P, and H2A.Q sequences all have intronless open reading frames.The four clades...
  5. .... Both the X and Y are composed of ancient and added regions, defined by comparing sex chromosomes between eutherian and marsupial mammals. The ancient region (XCR/YCR) is conserved on the X in both groups, but is autosomal in monotremes (Veyrunes et al. 2008), implying that it started differentiating...
  6. ...et al. 2003) and rapidly evolving gene families (Cheng et al. 2005). Chromosome-level comparative studies in mammalian s have allowed reconstruction of ancestral mammalian karyotypes (Murphy et al. 2005; for review, see FergusonSmith and Trifonov 2007) and have revealed a much more recent origin...
