• hyperactivated sperm motility is severely impaired with most mutant sperm non-motile after 90 min in conditions that should result in hyperactivation
• in hyperactivating conditions mutant sperm have significantly more condensed mitochondria compared to wild-type sperm
• mutant sperm have normal motility in the epididymis
|
• males but not females are infertile
