Brief description We propose to determine if a recently discovered biological mechanism plays crucial roles in the development of eggs and sperm. To achieve this, we will remove or mutate this pathway specifically in developing eggs and sperm , then examine the effect. Preliminary results indicate that the mechanism does play important roles mutated eggs fail to complete maturation. These studies will tell us more about what makes a healthy egg and sperm, and are relevant to female and male fertility.
