Persistence of two Y chromosomes through meiotic prophase and metaphase I in an XYY man.

R M Speed1, M J Faed, P J Batstone, K Baxby, W Barnetson.   

Abstract

Studies of spermatogenesis in an XYY male, presenting at a subfertility clinic, confirm the tendency for the germ cells to lose the second Y chromosome but for some XYY cells to reach metaphase I (MI). Light microscope studies of MI revealed the presence of YY bivalents and EM studies of microspread, silver-stained pachytene stages showed 30% of the cells to have two Y chromosomes; 13 out of 16 of these showing a YY synaptonemal complex. Strikingly, the Y axes show only partial synapsis; in no case was synapsis of the long arm heterochromatic regions apparent.
