Article found @ http://jcs.biologists.org/content/121/19/3233.full. Discusses implications of STRA8 mutation.

I'm unable to access the full article (for free) but maybe you will be able to Linda. It may be useful for adding some info to the mutation section.

International Journal of Andrology (2011).This article discusses spermatocyte failure...I'm wondering if this should be a section in the outline? Or maybe can be combined with the mutagen section.
