ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for modulating conception in animals. More particularly, the composition modulates mRNA degradation during gametogenesis and early development. Yet further, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods for modulating diseases of the reproductive organs, such as hyperproliferative diseases.
