DYS14 , pJA923 , TSPYUnified entry for genes TSPY1, LOC728137, TSPY1D, TSPY1E, TSPY1F, TSPY1G, TSPY1H, TSPY1I, TSPY2 (nearly-identical copies)
Gene copies
Genes TSPY1D, TSPY1E, TSPY1F, TSPY1G, TSPY1H, TSPY1I were provisionally created by CTPedia to name all the TSPY1 loci. Aligning TSPY2's RefSeq NM_022573, TSPY1's NM_003308 or LOC728137's NM_001077697 results in 9 highly similar alignments (>99% identity). The reference copy with 100% identity presents 6 exons. The exon intron structures of 3 copies differ from the reference because they present an extra 18 nt segment that composes a GT..AG intron that splits exon 1.
Apart from the described above, the 9 genomic regions are very similar overall, presenting few gaps/mismatches when aligned to each other.
NM_003308 and NM_022573 differ by 7 mismatches, NM_001077697 by 4 mismatches.
