The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).

For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.
Four copies of a 2kb repetitive sequence with extensive homology to XDm are present in the 10B region of the X chromosome.
Family of dispersed repeated DNA sequences. Approximately 300--400 copies of the repeat unit are distributed between cytogenetic regions 4 and 14A. The family is virtually confined to the euchromatic region of the X chromosome. The sex chromosomal localization of the family suggests a role in heterochromatization. The noncoding nature, its concentration on the X chromosome and the strong sequence conservation at dispersed sites of XDm suggest a role in assessing the X/A ratio.
