Abstract excerpt
Numerous reports have suggested that disturbances in nuclear condensation may result in male infertility. This notion has been supported by the observation of infertile individuals with a decrease or absence of the male sperm-specific chromatin packaging protamine proteins. To date, no correlation between the absence of protamine proteins and a mutation within the coding regions of the protamine genes has been...
