Chromosomal Gene Movements Reflect the Recent Origin and Biology of Therian Sex Chromosomes

Mammalian sex chromosomes stem from ancestral autosomes and have substantially differentiated. It was shown that X-linked genes have generated duplicate intronless gene copies (retrogenes) on autosomes due to this differentiation. However, the precise driving forces for this out-of-X gene “movement”...
