TMEM150B is dispensable for oocyte maturation and female fertility in mouse
Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) refers to severe decline of ovary function in females which usually leads to infertility. It has been reported that the TMEM150B gene is mostly associated with age at natural menopause, early menopause and POI, but its role in female reproduction remain...
