Abstract excerpt
Single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis of exon-containing genomic DNA segments of the deleted-in-azoospermia-like (DAZL) gene was performed in 160 infertile Taiwanese men presenting with severe oligozoospermia and nonobstructive azoospermia. An A-->G transition at nucleotide 386 in exon 3 was identified. The mutation is located within the RNA-recognition motif (aa 32-117) domain of the DAZL protein and...
