About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for BPY2: This gene is located in the nonrecombining portion of the Y chromosome, and expressed specifically in testis. Theencoded protein interacts with ubiquitin protein ligase E3A and may be involved in male germ cell development and maleinfertility. Three nearly identical copies of this gene exist on chromosome Y; two copies are part of a palindromicregion. This record represents the copy outside of the palidromic region.
