Bone morphogenetic proteins and folliculogenesis: lessons from the Booroola mutation.

Reproduction (Cambridge, England). Supplement - 1 Jan 2003

Souza C J H, Campbell B K, McNeilly A S, Baird D T

Abstract excerpt

The Booroola phenotype is associated with a point mutation in the kinase domain of the bone morphogenetic protein receptor 1 B (BMPR1 B), and is characterized by 'precocious' differentiation of ovarian follicles, leading to the production of large numbers of ovulatory follicles that are smaller in diameter than wild-type follicles. These smaller follicles attain differentiation markers, such as expression of mRNA...
