Homologous pairing activities of two rice RAD51 proteins, RAD51A1 and RAD51A2. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
In higher eukaryotes, RAD51 functions as an essential protein in homologous recombination and recombinational repair of DNA double strand breaks. During these processes, RAD51 catalyzes homologous pairing between single-stranded DNA and double-stranded ...

Sycp2 is essential for synaptonemal complex assembly, early meiotic recombination and homologous pairing in zebrafish spermatocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genet, 2020
Meiotic recombination is essential for faithful segregation of homologous chromosomes during gametogenesis. The progression of recombination is associated with dynamic changes in meiotic chromatin structures.

Identification of 5P Chromosomes in Wheat-Agropyron cristatum Addition Line and Analysis of Its Effect on Homologous Pairing of Wheat Chromosomes [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
As an important wheat wild relative, the P genome of Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. (2n = 4x = 28) is very valuable for wheat improvement. A complete set of wheat-A.

Chromatin architecture may dictate the target site for DMC1, but not for RAD51, during homologous pairing. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2016
In eukaryotes, genomic DNA is compacted as chromatin, in which histones and DNA form the nucleosome as the basic unit. DMC1 and RAD51 are essential eukaryotic recombinases that mediate homologous chromosome pairing during homologous recombination ...

Homologous Pairing between Long DNA Double Helices [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2016
Molecular recognition between two double stranded (ds) DNA with homologous sequences may not seem compatible with the B-DNA structure because the sequence information is hidden when it is used for joining the two strands.

Ontogenes and the Paradox of Homologous Pairing

open access: yesAdvances in Bioscience and Biotechnology (Print), 2021
The mutations in ontogenes have been shown to drastically increase the nondisjunction of X chromosomes in the D. melanogaster meiosis. This means that ontogenes are involved in the process that brings the homologs together although both the genes and ...

OsRAD51D promotes homologous pairing and recombination by preventing nonhomologous interactions in rice meiosis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Homologous recombination (HR) is carefully orchestrated to maintain genome integrity. RAD51D has been previously shown to be essential for double-strand break (DSB) repair in mammalian somatic cells.

OsHOP2 regulates the maturation of crossovers by promoting homologous pairing and synapsis in rice meiosis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2019
Meiotic recombination is closely linked with homologous pairing and synapsis. Previous studies have shown that HOMOLOGOUS PAIRING PROTEIN2 (HOP2), plays an essential role in homologous pairing and synapsis.

Chromosome-associated RNA–protein complexes promote pairing of homologous chromosomes during meiosis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
During meiosis, pairing of homologous chromosomes is critical for sexual reproduction. Here the authors reveal in S. pombe the role of lncRNA–protein complexes during the pairing of homologues chromosomes that assemble at specific chromosomal loci to ...

Chromosomally-retained RNA mediates homologous pairing. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus, 2012
Pairing and recombination of homologous chromosomes are essential for ensuring correct segregation of chromosomes in meiosis. In S. pombe, chromosomes are first bundled at the telomeres (forming a telomere bouquet) and then aligned by oscillatory ...
