13 novel mutations in NLRP7 were identified. We confirm that mutations in NLRP7 affect female but not male reproduction, and provide evidence that transcript variant 2 of NLRP7 is the important isoform in this condition. The mutation clustering seen confirms that the LRR is critical for normal functioning of NLRP7.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
