Identification of novel biallelic variants in BMP15 in two siblings with premature ovarian insufficiency.

This study identified novel biallelic variants, c.791G > A and c.1076C > T, of BMP15 in two siblings with POI. Both missense variants reduced the level of the BMP15 protein and impaired the function of BMP15 in promoting granulosa cell proliferation in vitro. Taken together, our findings provide a novel molecular genetic basis and potential pathogenesis of BMP15 variants in POI.
