人类男性特有的重复序列。

Nature. 1976 Jul 15;262(5565):182-6. doi: 10.1038/262182a0.

Restriction enzyme analysis and nucleic acid hybridisation show that there is a repeated sequence in human male DNA which is not present in human female DNA. This sequence is shown to constitute about 50% of the DNA in the Y chromosome and is a simple tandemly repeated DNA.

限制性内切酶分析和核酸杂交表明，人类男性DNA中存在一种重复序列，而人类女性DNA中不存在该序列。该序列约占Y染色体中DNA的50%，是一种简单的串联重复DNA。
