Descripción
Gonadal sex determination in vertebrates generally follows a sequence of genetically programmed events. In what is seemingly becoming a pattern, all confirmed or current candidate “master” sex-determining genes reported in this group, e.g., SRY in eutherian mammals, DMY/dmrt1bY in medaka, DM-W in the African clawed frog, andDMRT1 in chicken encode transcription factors. In contrast, here we show that a male-specific, duplicated copy of the anti-Müllerian hormone (amh) is implicated in testicular development of the teleost fish Patagonian pejerrey (Odontesthes hatcheri). The gene, termed amhy because it is found in a single metacentric/submetacentric chromosome of XY individuals, is expressed much earlierthan the autosomal amh (6 d after fertilization vs. 12 wk after fertilization) and is localized to presumptive Sertoli cells of XY males during testicular differentiation.Moreover, amhy knockdown in XY embryos resulted in the up-regulation of foxl2 and cyp19a1a mRNAs and the development of ovaries. These results are evidence of a functional amh duplication in vertebrates and suggest that amhy may be the master sex-determining gene in this species. If confirmed, this would be a unique instance of a hormone-related gene, a member of the TGF-β superfamily, in such a role.
