This chromosome codes for four members of the DAZ family, and along with chromosome 6, codes for CD24. MIT researchers discovered in 2003 that it is able to recombine with itself in a process known as RecLOH, and extra copies of it can lead to skeletal deformities. A zinc finger protein at p11.31 was erroneously called TDF, until that testis-determining factor was discovered to be its SRY gene. For 10 points, name this sex-determining chromosome in most mammals.
