Abstract excerpt
The Homologous Recombination Factor With OB-Fold (HROB) plays a role in homologous recombination and DNA replication, where it enhances the MCM8-MCM9 helicase complex activity. Recent findings link biallelic germline HROB variants to primary gonadal insufficiency (hypergonadotropic hypogonadism), a phenotype also associated with MCM8/MCM9 deficiency. Here, we describe a family where two individuals with biallelic...
