Sequence variation at KLK and WFDC clusters and its association to semen hyperviscosity and other male infertility phenotypes

STUDY QUESTION: Are kallikreins (KLKs), the whey-acidic-protein four-disulfide core domain (WFDCs) and their neighbors, semenogelins (SEMGs), known to play a role in the cascade of semen coagulation and liquefaction, associated with male infertility? SUMMARY ANSWER: Several KLK and SEMG variants are...
