CDYL Antibody (N-term)

NP_004815.3; NP_001137443.1

Chromodomain Y is a primate-specific Y-chromosomal gene
family expressed exclusively in the testis and implicated in
infertility. Although the Y-linked genes are testis-specific, this
autosomal gene is ubiquitously expressed. The Y-linked genes arose
by retrotransposition of an mRNA from this gene, followed by
amplification of the retroposed gene. Proteins encoded by this gene
superfamily possess a chromodomain, a motif implicated in chromatin
binding and gene suppression, and a catalytic domain believed to be
involved in histone acetylation. Multiple proteins are encoded by
transcript variants of this gene.
