This study shows that protamine PTMs create heterogeneous chromatin states in sperm, affecting fertility and chromatin integrity.

The paper identifies PTBP1's role in regulating alternative splicing of actin regulators to control Sertoli cell actin cytoskeleton dynamics during spermatogenesis.

This study shows that CEP164 is essential for multiciliogenesis in efferent ducts, leading to male infertility due to sperm agglutination and duct obstruction.

This study shows that IFT74 is essential for mouse spermatogenesis and male fertility by regulating axonemal microtubule assembly and fibrous sheath formation.

The paper identifies CSMD1 variants linked to gonadal function in both sexes and shows that Csmd1 knockout mice have reproductive defects, implicating the complement system in postnatal development.
