malfunction | oocyte-specific deletion at the primary follicle stage of T-synthase leads to a sustained increase in fertility mutant females ovulated 30-50% more eggs and has a sustained increase in litter size compared to controls, ovarian weights and follicle numbers are greater in mutants, but follicular apoptosis is not decreased, the number of follicles entering the growing pool is unaltered, but 3-week mutants ovulate fewer eggs, suggesting that increased fertility results from prolonged follicle development, T-synthase mutant ovaries also contain numerous multiple-oocyte follicles that appeared to form by adjacent, predominantly preantral, follicles joining | Mus musculus |
physiological function | T-synthase generates core 1-derived O-glycans | Mus musculus |
