ABSTRACT The human genome contains 24 gag -like capsid genes derived from deactivated retrotransposons conserved among eutherians. Although some of their encoded proteins retain the ability to form capsids and even transfer cargo, fitness benefit has remained elusive. Here we show that PNMA1 PNMA4 support reproductive capacity. Six-week-old mice lacking either Pnma1 or Pnma4 are indistinguishable wild-type littermates, but by six months mutant become prematurely subfertile, with precipitous...

Abstract Study question What carrier screening test is better to reduce the risk of offspring being affected by recessive diseases when genetic matching performed with gamete donors: complete or targeted genes analysis? Summary answer The use analysis in donors reduces diseases. known already Legislative measures and scientific societies alike call for more research be conducted into donors, order reproductive risk. However, it still unclear which should studied what type data analysis,...
