| sex pili | <cell biology> Fine filamentous projections (pili) on the surface of a bacterium that are important in conjugation. Often seem to be coded for by plasmids that confer conjugative potential on the host, in the case of the f plasmid, the F pili are 8-9nm diameter and several microns long, composed of pilin. Whether the pili merely serve to establish and maintain adhesive contact between the partners in conjugation or whether DNA is actually transferred through the central core of the pilus is still unresolved, although a simple adhesion role is more generally accepted.

| sex reversal | A process whereby the sexual identity of an individual is changed from one sex to the other (e.g., by a combination of surgical, pharmacologic, and psychiatric procedures); it may also occur in the life history of pseudohermaphroditic individuals whose sex at birth was uncertain; initially reared as members of one gender or sex role, such individuals may, upon subsequent medical examination and advice, be reared thereafter as members of the opposite gender or sex role. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex reversal, gonadal | Change from one sex to another with regard to gonadal development; may be induced or occurs naturally in some invertebrates. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sex role | The degree to which an individual acts out a stereotypical masculine or feminine role in everyday behaviour. Compare: gender role. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex skin | The skin of the genital regions of the Macaca mulatta and other primates which becomes hyperaemic during estrus; at the same time the dermis becomes gelatinous and the epidermis thickened. (05 Mar 2000) |

| sex-influenced | Denoting a class of genetic disorders in which the same genotype has differing manifestations in the two sexes; the variation may be rational (e.g., breast cancer occurs less frequently in males) or have only empirical support (e.g., pattern baldness behaves as a dominant trait in the male and as a recessive trait in the female). See: sex-influenced inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex-influenced esterase | <enzyme> Sex hormone-dependent enzyme; liver enzyme may be a precursor of sex-influenced esterase Registry number: EC 3.1.1.- Synonym: es-si esterase, liver sex-influenced esterase (26 Jun 1999) |
| sex-influenced inheritance | Inheritance that is autosomal but has a different intensity of xpression in the two sexes, e.g., male pattern baldness. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex-limited | Occurring in one sex only. See: sex-limited inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex-limited inheritance | Inheritance of a trait that can be expressed in one sex only, e.g., testicular feminization. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sex-linked | <genetics> A genetic disorder where the genetic defect is linked to one of the chromosomes that determines sex (x or y). This is usually due to a gene on the unpaired portion of the X chromosome. Recessive X linked alleles are fully expressed in the heterogametic sex because they can have only one copy of the gene. Thus X linked mutant disorders are more common in human males than in females. An example is haemophilia, which is autosomal recessive and linked to the X chromosome, so only males (XY) actually manifest the disease. (06 Oct 1997) |
| sex-linked character | An inherited character determined by a gene on a gonosome. See: gene. (05 Mar 2000) |
