Novel CNVRs of functional interest from this study involved genes related to sperm-egg interaction and fertilization in chr4:19.8–19.9 Mb; a developmental gene SOX2 in chr19:20.1 Mb; an X-linked region harboring genes of circadian pacemaker function chrX:83.8–84.0 Mb, and a complex CNVR in chrUn:225–226 kb with cancer related genes. This evidence concerns the gene SOX2 and cancer.
