Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Early embryonic arrest is one of the reasons for the recurrent IVF/ICSI failures. We aimed to identify pathogenic mutations in female infertility patients with early embryonic arrest. METHODS: Whole-exome sequencing was performed in the affected patients. Sanger sequencing was used on patients and their families to confirm the identified mutations. Wild-type and mutant plasmids were constructed and...
