Abstract excerpt
The cohesin complex is an evolutionarily conserved multi-subunit protein assembly essential for sister chromatid cohesion, meiotic recombination, DNA double-strand break repair, and transcriptional regulation. Pathogenic variants in its subunits are implicated in a spectrum of reproductive and developmental disorders, including non-obstructive azoospermia, premature ovarian insufficiency, reproductive aging,...
