70 kiloDalton heat shock protein 2 (HSPA2) is expressed in the testis during the meiotic phase of spermatogenesis in humans and mice. Mutations in HSPA2 have been shown to cause sterility in male mice, while not affecting female reproductive capacity. Based on these comparative observations, HSPA2 is a candidate gene for influencing porcine male reproductive phenotypes. To initiate research ass...
