N normal phenotype
reproductive system
• females are fertile
• testis and epididymis weights are similar to controls
• significant reduction in the number of sperm with normal morphology and increase in the frequency of sperm with multiple heads
• increase in the frequency of sperm with multiple heads
• decrease in sperm velocity after 2h incubation
• decrease in proteasome activity in testicular cells
• when mated to wild-type C57BL/6 females plug formation is observed but no pregnancies are detected
• in-vitro sperm fails to fertilize eggs under either the cumulus-intact or cumulus-free conditions but fertilization does take place under the zona pellucida condition

endocrine/exocrine glands
• no abnormalities were detected in the function or development of cortical thymic epithelial cells
• decrease in proteasome activity in testicular cells

cellular
• significant reduction in the number of sperm with normal morphology and increase in the frequency of sperm with multiple heads
• increase in the frequency of sperm with multiple heads
• decrease in sperm velocity after 2h incubation
