  2. XY gonadal dysgenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_gonadal_dysgenesis

    Swyer syndrome is an example of a condition in which an externally unambiguous female body carries dysgenetic, atypical, or abnormal gonads. [20] Other examples include complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, partial X chromosome deletions, lipoid congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and Turner syndrome. [21]

  3. 46,XX/46,XY - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/46,XX/46,XY

    46,XX/46,XY chimeric or mosaic is associated with a wide spectrum of different physical presentations, with cases ranging from having a completely normal male or female phenotype [7] [8] [9] to some cases having ovotesticular syndrome. Due to this variation, genetic testing is the only way to reliably make a diagnosis. [11] [12] [13] [6]

  4. Gonadal dysgenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonadal_dysgenesis

    Mixed gonadal dysgenesis, also known as X0/XY mosaicism or partial gonadal dysgenesis, [21] is a sex development difference associated with sex chromosome aneuploidy and mosaicism of the Y chromosome. [14] Mixed gonadal dysgenesis is the presence of two or more germ line cells. [23]

  5. 45,X/46,XY mosaicism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/45,X/46,XY_mosaicism

    In 45,X/46,XY, most or all of the Y chromosome is lost in one of the newly created cells. All the cells then made from this cell will lack the Y chromosome. All the cells created from the cells that have not lost the Y chromosome will be XY. [11] The 46,XY cells will continue to multiply at the same time as the 45,X cells multiply.

  6. Sex chromosome anomalies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_chromosome_anomalies

    46, XX male syndrome, also known as de la Chapelle syndrome In this list, the karyotype is summarized by the number of chromosomes, followed by the sex chromosomes present in each cell. (In the second and third cases the karyotype varies from cell to cell, while in the last three cases, the genotype is normal but the phenotype is not.)

    While all human chromosomes contain repeats, more than 30 million letters of the Y chromosome — out of 62.5 million — are repetitive sequences, sometimes called satellite DNA or junk DNA.

  8. Scientists solve the genetic puzzle of sex-related Y chromosome

    Researchers on Wednesday unveiled the first complete sequence of the human Y chromosome, which is one of the two sex chromosomes - the X chromosome being the other - and is typically passed down ...

  9. Genetic disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_disorder

    Y-linked disorders are caused by mutations on the Y chromosome. These conditions may only be transmitted from the heterogametic sex (e.g. male humans) to offspring of the same sex. More simply, this means that Y-linked disorders in humans can only be passed from men to their sons; females can never be affected because they do not possess Y ...
