Abstract excerpt
Male infertility has been linked to M1AP. In mice, M1AP interacts with the ZZS proteins SHOC1/TEX11/SPO16, promoting DNA class I crossover formation during meiosis. To determine whether M1AP and ZZS proteins are involved in human male infertility by recombination failure, we screened for biallelic/hemizygous loss-of-function (LoF) variants in the human genes to select men with presumed protein deficiency...
