However, the genetic etiology of teratozoospermia is largely unknown. This study aims to clarify the relationship between novel variations in <jats:italic>TENT5D<\/jats:italic> and teratozoospermia in infertile patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Two infertile patients were enrolled. Routine semen analysis of patients and normal controls was conducted with the WHO guidelines. Whole\u2010exome sequencing (WES) was conducted to identify pathogenic variants in the two patients. Morphology and ultrastructure analysis of spermatozoa in the two patients was determined by Papanicolaou staining, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The functional effect of the identified variants was analyzed by immunofluorescence staining and western blotting. The expression of TENT5D in different germ cells was detected by immunofluorescence staining.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Two new hemizygous variations, c.101C\u00a0&gt;\u00a0T (p.P34L) and c.125A\u00a0&gt;\u00a0T (p.D42V), in <jats:italic>TENT5D<\/jats:italic> were detected in two patients with male infertility. Morphology analysis showed abnormalities in spermatozoa morphology in the two patients, including multiple heads, headless, multiple tails, coiled, and\/or bent flagella. Ultrastructure analysis showed that most of the spermatozoa exhibited missing or irregularly arranged \u20189+2\u2019 structures. Further functional experiments confirmed the abrogated TENT5D protein expression in patients. In addition, both p.P34L and p.D42V substitutions resulted in a conformational change of the TENT5D protein. We precisely analyzed the subcellular localization of TENT5D in germ cells in humans and mice. And we found that TENT5D was predominantly detected in the head and flagellum of elongating spermatids and epididymal spermatozoa.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our results showed further evidence of a relationship between <jats:italic>TENT5D<\/jats:italic> mutation and
