Hi David,
The PAR regions are documented at UCSC on the hg19 genome gateway page (and for some other recent genomes). Start at the main page, click into Genomes, select hg19, then scroll down to credits:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/quote:
The Y chromosome in this assembly contains two pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) that were taken from the corresponding regions in the X chromosome and are exact duplicates:
chrY:10001-2649520 and chrY:59034050-59363566
chrX:60001-2699520 and chrX:154931044-155260560
Hopefully this helps!

Hi,
Again, thanks for the feedback. I made my own female hg19 by deleting chrY from my copy of hg19 so thats OK. It still leaves the problem of how to analyse male transcriptomes since maps to PAR1 and 2 genes get reported as multimap reads which can end up being filtered out depending on how you analyse your transcriptome. If I knew with certainty where PAR1 and 2 are on chrY of hg19 I was planning to replace the nucleotides with N's on chrY so that they would no longer show up as a multimap problem - do you (or anyone else) happen to know the co-ordinates on hg19?
Cheers

Hi David,
Right now we don't have anything built-in to filter out this type of duplication automatically.
As a potential option, did you know that we offer a "Canonical Female" build for certain genomes? This may help with some of the duplication issues, if the loss of novel Y is OK for your project.
Please see:

Thanks for bringing up a good point!
Best,
Jen

Hi All again,
A separate point about the analysis of cufflinks data is the subject of
the Pseudo Autosomal Regions in X and Y - this will make a mess of gene
expression analysis in some cases especially because tophat will assign
a read to both places which therefore makes it a multihit read (which
you might then filter out) or it may double the true levels of reported
expression. Anyone had experience/thoughts on this?
Best Wishes,
David.
