Direct measurement of the male germline mutation rate in individuals using sequential sperm samples
Mutations that accumulate in the human male germline with age are a major driver of genetic diversity and contribute to genetic diseases. However, aging-related male germline mutation rates have not been measured directly in germline cells (sperm) at the level of individuals. We developed a study design in which we recalled 23 sperm donors with prior banked samples to provide new sperm samples. The old and new sequential sperm samples were separated by long timespans, ranging from 10 to 33...
