Our study revealed a novel homozygous frameshift mutation of c.335_336del [p.E112Vfs*3] in DNAJB13 involved in teratozoospermia phenotype. Our study greatly expands the spectrum of limited DNAJB13 mutations, and is expected to provide a better understanding of genetic counseling diagnoses and subsequent treatment of male infertility.
