Genetic variation in <it>SPAG16</it> regions encoding the WD40 repeats is not associated with reduced sperm motility and axonemal defects in a population of infertile males

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>SPAG16 is a critical structural component of motile cilia and flagella. In the eukaryotic unicellular algae <it>Chlamydomonas</it>, loss of gene function causes flagellar paralysis and prevents assembly of the “9 + 2” axoneme central pair. In mice, we have previo...
