Abstract excerpt
Male infertility, a global public health problem, exhibits complex pathogenic causes and genetic factors deserve further discovery and study. We identified a novel homozygous missense mutation c.224A > C (p.D75A) in ACTL7A gene in two infertile brothers with teratozoospermia by whole-exome sequencing (WES). In vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) showed fertilization failure of...
