Summaries for SRY Gene

Entrez Gene Summary for SRY Gene

  • This intronless gene encodes a transcription factor that is a member of the high mobility group (HMG)-box family of DNA-binding proteins. This protein is the testis-determining factor (TDF), which initiates male sex determination. Mutations in this gene give rise to XY females with gonadal dysgenesis (Swyer syndrome); translocation of part of the Y chromosome containing this gene to the X chromosome causes XX male syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

GeneCards Summary for SRY Gene

SRY (Sex Determining Region Y) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with SRY include 46,Xx Sex Reversal 1 and 46,Xy Sex Reversal 1. Among its related pathways are CCR5 Pathway in Macrophages and Signaling by GPCR. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include DNA binding transcription factor activity and transcription factor binding. An important paralog of this gene is SOX1.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot for SRY Gene

  • Transcriptional regulator that controls a genetic switch in male development. It is necessary and sufficient for initiating male sex determination by directing the development of supporting cell precursors (pre-Sertoli cells) as Sertoli rather than granulosa cells (By similarity). In male adult brain involved in the maintenance of motor functions of dopaminergic neurons (By similarity). Involved in different aspects of gene regulation including promoter activation or repression (By similarity). Promotes DNA bending. SRY HMG box recognizes DNA by partial intercalation in the minor groove. Also involved in pre-mRNA splicing. Binds to the DNA consensus sequence 5-[AT]AACAA[AT]-3.

Post-translational modifications for SRY Gene

  • Acetylation of Lys-136 contributes to its nuclear localization and enhances its interaction with KPNB1. Deacetylated by HDAC3.
  • Phosphorylated on serine residues by PKA. Phosphorylation by PKA enhances its DNA-binding activity and stimulates transcription repression.
  • Poly-ADP-ribosylated by PARP1. ADP-ribosylation reduces its DNA-binding activity.

  • 46,XY sex reversal 1 (SRXY1) [MIM:400044]: A condition characterized by male-to-female sex reversal in the presence of a normal 46,XY karyotype. Patients manifest rapid and early degeneration of their gonads, which are present in the adult as streak gonads, consisting mainly of fibrous tissue and variable amounts of ovarian stroma. As a result these patients do not develop secondary sexual characteristics at puberty.
