Abstract excerpt
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a major cause of female infertility, and accumulating evidence indicates that genetic variants contribute to its pathogenesis. To further explore the genetic basis of POI, we performed a whole-exome sequencing among 121 women with POI and identified three rare heterozygous BNC1 gene variants, which include two missense variants, p.(Leu532Pro) and p.(Ser938Asn), and one...
