Mutation in CATIP (C2orf62) causes oligoteratoasthenozoospermia by affecting actin dynamics
5 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Oligoteratoasthenozoospermia (OTA) combines deteriorated quantity, morphology and motility of the sperm, resulting in male factor infertility. METHODS: We used whole genome genotyping and exome sequencing to identify the mutation causing OTA in four men in a consanguineous Bedouin family. We expressed the normal and mutated proteins tagged with c-Myc at the carboxy termini by transfection with...
