The importance of BMP-15 in ovulation and folliculogenesis has been highlighted by research into Turner syndrome, a chromosomal abnormality where females are missing a complete or partial X chromosome. Depending on the chromosomal mutation, BMP-15 gene dosage varies and impacts ovarian development in Turner syndrome patients. The gene is thus involved in determining the extent of the ovarian defects present in Turner syndrome.
