A study has linked a protein called RABL2 that leads to male infertility. The mutated protein has been blamed for affecting the sperm tails, crippling their swimming ability and decreased sperm production all contributing to male infertility. The team led by Moira O'Bryan, professor from Monash University's School of Biomedical Sciences in Australia, found that mutated RABL2 resulted in sperm tails 17 percent shorter than normal, lowering sperm production by 50 ...Sunday 14 October 2012
