Leukocytes with chromosome Y loss have reduced abundance of the cell surface immunoprotein CD99

Abstract Mosaic loss of chromosome Y (LOY) in immune cells is a male-specific mutation associated with increased risk for morbidity and mortality. The CD99 gene, positioned in the pseudoautosomal regions of chromosomes X and Y, encodes a cell surface protein essential for several key properties of l...
