Deficiency of the <i>Tmem232</i> Gene Causes Male Infertility with Morphological Abnormalities of the Sperm Flagellum in Mice
The axoneme and accessory structures of flagella are critical for sperm motility and male fertilization. Sperm production needs precise and highly ordered gene expression to initiate and sustain the many cellular processes that result in mature spermatozoa. Here, we identified a testis enriched gene...
