Oct 1, 2013 at 17:26 comment added biogirl @Armatus It is actually written in tortora and derrickson that the cells are joined by their cytoplasm because of some genes are exclusive to X or Y but I can't find any proteins meeting this criteria. Even I don't know why they couldn't simply be on any autosome.
Oct 1, 2013 at 0:26 comment added Armatus I can't think of a particular reason why there would be a need for genes involved in spermatogenesis to be located on the X or Y, all genes involved could simply be on autosomes. I don't know whether any are though (or aren't).
Sep 30, 2013 at 19:07 comment added biogirl @Armatus In simpler words the gene should be present strictly on either X or Y not on both. It should also not be present on autosomes.
Sep 30, 2013 at 19:05 comment added biogirl @Armatus I am asking for genes present exclusively on X or exclusively on Y which are needed to convert spermatids to sperms.
Sep 30, 2013 at 19:02 comment added Armatus Are you asking what proteins are exclusive to X and Y from all other chromosomes or are you asking which proteins are on the X but not the Y (and vice versa)? These are two very different questions.
