we report on a homozygous missense mutation in the gene coding for meiotic double-stranded break formation protein 1 observed in two brothers with non-obstructive azoospermia and meiotic arrest. A fertile brother was heterozygous for the mutation. All the queried databases predicted that this mutation is damaging, and it has previously been reported that Mei1 knock-out is associated with meiotic arrest in a murine model.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
