Table I. Male fertility parameters.

Fertility is impaired in Ropn1^GT and Asp^GT/Ropn1^GT mice, but not Asp^GT mice. Motility of sperm from wild type, Asp^GT, Ropn1^GT, or Asp^GT/Ropn1^GT mice was assessed by trained observers. To determine fertility, male mice were housed with wild type female mice for a minimum of 5 weeks. N=10 for each line, ± indicates standard error.

	Sperm motility	% Fertile	Avg litter size^b
Wild type	Vigorous	100	7.10 ± 0.71
*Asp^GT*	Vigorous	100	6.88 ± 0.55
*Ropn1^GT*	Variable^a	40	3.75 ± 1.75
*Asp^GT/Ropn1^GT*	Immotile	0	NA

See Results for detail.

Average litter size excludes infertile mice that produced no pups
