The protein encoding potential of Sly. (a) Sly encodes a putative protein with a COR1 region. This COR 1 region is shared with two closely related proteins, namely XMR and XLR, and with the less closely related synaptonemal complex protein SYCP3. (b) A comparison of the predicted protein sequence for SLY with the predicted proteins for other Sly related Y loci that are each represented by more than one copy (information collated from sequence information available in December 2004).
