Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the tubulin beta 8 class VIII (TUBB8) gene have been proven to cause oocyte maturation arrest. The aim of this study was to describe newly discovered mutations in TUBB8 and to investigate the prevalence of TUBB8 mutations in our cohort. Nine women with oocyte maturation arrest and 100 fertile female controls were recruited. Sanger sequencing of the coding regions of TUBB8 revealed a heterozygous...
