rs757326350, also known as c.1465A>T, p.Ile489Phe and I489F, represents a very rare mutation in the PLCZ1 gene on chromosome 12. When inherited recessively, the rs757326350(A) allele (in dbSNP, not cDNA, orientation) is reported to lead to male infertility, designated in ClinVar and OMIM as spermatogenic failure, type 17. Functional studies of the effect of the protein encoded by this mutation support it's inability to trigger fertilization. Note: another variant, c.1465A>C, has been observed for this SNP. However, to date it is unclear if the (C) allele is linked to infertility.

A;A

Reported to lead to male infertility; see discussion at rs757326350.

A;T

Unaffected in absence of another PLCZ1 gene mutation; see discussion at rs757326350.
