The role of Yq-linked genes in fertility and offspring sex ratio with Dr Peter Ellis
Manage episode 289940375 series 2859702
We're back after the Easter Break with an extremely interesting episode with Dr Peter Ellis from the School of Biosciences at the University of Kent! Dr.Ellis is a Lecturer in Molecular Genetics and Reproduction at the University of Kent. His research thus far has involved the identification of novel genes on the mouse Y chromosome that affect sperm head shape and fertility; the discovery of a genomic conflict between the mice sex chromosomes as they compete to influence offspring sex ratio. Also the identification of mechanisms regulating meiotic and post-meiotic transcriptional silencing of the sex chromosomes. His lab investigates the molecular biology of reproduction, the conflicting roles played by sex-linked genes in regulating this process, and the relationship between DNA damage repair mechanisms and the checkpoints governing meiotic progression.
