Gene mutation leads to male infertility
GRENOBLE, France, April 16 (UPI)
French medical scientists have identified a mutation in a gene called AURKC (Aurora Kinase C) in 14 infertile men of North African descent. Pierre Ray and colleagues at University Hospital in Grenoble said while deletions of some portion of the Y chromosome have been found in infertile men, their discovery is a rare example in which a mutation in a single gene causes male infertility.
