Abstract excerpt
In brief: A new allele of the senataxin gene Setxspcar3 causes meiotic arrest of spermatocytes with aberrant DNA damage and accumulation of R-loops. Abstract: An unbiased screen for discovering novel mouse genes for fertility identified the spcar3, spermatocyte arrest 3, mutant phenotype. The spcar3 mutation identified a new allele of the Setx gene, encoding senataxin, a DNA/RNA helicase that regulates...
