Control of Meiosis by Respiration [PDF]
Current Biology, 2008 A cell's decision to undergo meiosis is regulated by multiple signals. In budding yeast, these signals include mating-type status, nutrient starvation, and respiration; the need for respiration is often manifested as a requirement for a nonfermentable carbon source.

Principles of meiotic chromosome assembly revealed in S. cerevisiae [PDF]
, 2019 During meiotic prophase, chromosomes organise into a series of chromatin loops emanating from a proteinaceous axis, but the mechanisms of assembly remain unclear.

Reproduction, 2005 The past five years have seen the dawn of an era of illumination in our understanding of how vertebrate meiosis is regulated. Much of the foundation for recent progress came from the enormous advances in elucidating the molecular regulation of mitotic cell division and yeast meiosis (reviewed in Uhlmann 2001, Petronczki et al.

CENH3-GFP: a visual marker for gametophytic and somatic ploidy determination in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2016 Background: The in vivo determination of the cell-specific chromosome number provides a valuable tool in several aspects of plant research. However, current techniques to determine the endosystemic ploidy level do not allow non-destructive, cell-specific

Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: Maternal RNAs are stored from minutes to decades in oocytes throughout meiosis I arrest in a transcriptionally quiescent state. Recent reports, however, propose a role for nascent transcription in arrested oocytes.

Positive regulation of meiotic DNA double-strand break formation by activation of the DNA damage checkpoint kinase Mec1(ATR) [PDF]
, 2013 During meiosis, formation and repair of programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) create genetic exchange between homologous chromosomes-a process that is critical for reductional meiotic chromosome segregation and the production of genetically diverse ...

Wellcome Open Research, 2019 Background: Meiosis produces gametes through two successive nuclear divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II. In contrast to mitosis and meiosis II, where sister chromatids are segregated, during meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are segregated. This requires

Distinct and Overlapping Requirements for Cyclins A, B, and B3 in Drosophila Female Meiosis
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 Meiosis, like mitosis, depends on the activity of the cyclin dependent kinase Cdk1 and its cyclin partners. Here, we examine the specific requirements for the three mitotic cyclins, A, B, and B3 in meiosis of Drosophila melanogaster.

Meiosis in Bougainvillea [PDF]
Nature, 1947 A query concerning the possibilities of crossing various horticultural varieties of Bougainvillea led me to examine meiosis in several of the more important ones available in Jamaica. Six varieties, Snow White, Formosa, Dark Purple, Ruby, Orange King and Royal Purple, were used.

Meiosis-specific cohesin component, Stag3 is essential for maintaining centromere chromatid cohesion, and required for DNA repair and synapsis between homologous chromosomes. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Cohesins are important for chromosome structure and chromosome segregation during mitosis and meiosis. Cohesins are composed of two structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC1-SMC3) proteins that form a V-shaped heterodimer structure, which is bridged by
