Two mechanisms drive pronuclear migration in mouse zygotes
Nature Communications, 2021 In a newly fertilized egg, maternal and paternal chromosomes are enclosed in two separate pronuclei but the mechanisms in mammals for pronuclear movement are unclear.

Shugoshin1 may play important roles in separation of homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids during mouse oocyte meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 BACKGROUND: Homologous chromosomes separate in meiosis I and sister chromatids separate in meiosis II, generating haploid gametes. To address the question why sister chromatids do not separate in meiosis I, we explored the roles of Shogoshin1 (Sgo1) in ...

A PP2A-B56—Centered View on Metaphase-to-Anaphase Transition in Mouse Oocyte Meiosis I
Cells, 2020 Meiosis is required to reduce to haploid the diploid genome content of a cell, generating gametes—oocytes and sperm—with the correct number of chromosomes.

A Novel Meiosis-Related lncRNA, Rbakdn, Contributes to Spermatogenesis by Stabilizing Ptbp2
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Spermatocyte meiosis is the cornerstone of mammalian production. Thousands of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to be functional in various cellular processes, but the function of lncRNAs in meiosis remains largely unknown.

Separase Is Required for Homolog and Sister Disjunction during Drosophila melanogaster Male Meiosis, but Not for Biorientation of Sister Centromeres. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2016 Spatially controlled release of sister chromatid cohesion during progression through the meiotic divisions is of paramount importance for error-free chromosome segregation during meiosis.

The Chromatin Protein DUET/MMD1 Controls Expression of the Meiotic Gene TDM1 during Male Meiosis in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2015 Meiosis produces haploid cells essential for sexual reproduction. In yeast, entry into meiosis activates transcription factors which trigger a transcriptional cascade that results in sequential co-expression of early, middle and late meiotic genes ...

Tackling Plant Meiosis: From Model Research to Crop Improvement
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Genetic engineering and traditional plant breeding, which harnesses the natural genetic variation that arises during meiosis, will have key roles to improve crop varieties and thus deliver Food Security in the future. Meiosis, a specialized cell division
