Abstract excerpt
The subcortical maternal complex (SCMC) is crucial for the oocyte-to-embryo transition, and genetic variants in SCMC genes have been associated with early embryonic arrest (EEA). In this study, we performed whole-exome sequencing on 303 independent females with EEA and identified 16 patients with biallelic pathogenic variants in SCMC genes (NLRP2, NLRP5, PADI6, and TLE6), accounting for 5.3% of EEA cases. NLRP5...
