Mammals and many other organisms achieve reduction and recombination through a process called meiosis, which is recognisable by the presence of a distinctive structure-the synaptonemal complex-that links the chromosomes together and is essential for meiosis to complete.— CiteULike: Everyone's library
We have made mice that lack SYCE1, a protein component of the synaptonemal complex.— CiteULike: Everyone's library
Mutations or variants in the genes encoding such proteins are likely contributors to variations in fertility and to abnormalities in chromosome number. actin bouquet chromatin chromosome crossover drosophila dynein elegans em endosome evolution fluorescent_protein image kinesin language maize meiosis microscopy motors nucleus pairing pmcarlton rad51 recombination single_molecule structural subdiffraction synaptonemal tracking CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.— CiteULike: Everyone's library
During meiotic prophase a unique and highly conserved structure is formed at the interface of homologous chromosomes: the synaptonemal complex (SC).— CiteULike: Everyone's library
