Abstract excerpt
BNC1 is a transcription factor that is crucial for spermatogenesis and male fertility, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. To study BNC1's specific role in spermatogenesis, we characterized a previously developed mouse model carrying a truncating mutation in Bnc1 (termed Bnc1+/tr for heterozygotes and Bnc1tr/tr for homozygotes) and found that the mutation decreased BNC1 protein levels and resulted...
