Abstract excerpt

Variations in the trinucleotide-CAG repeat number of the catalytic subunit of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma (POLG) have been speculated to be associated with male infertility. The ten CAG repeats (10/10) were found to be the most common allele (88%), absence of which was found to be associated with male infertility. As no study on Indian population was conducted so far to support this view, we...
