Centrosome dysfunction associated with somatic expression of the synaptonemal complex protein TEX12 [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2021 Sandhu et al. report that the synaptonemal complex (SC) protein, TEX12, localises to centrosomes independently of the SC during meiosis. They also show that it provokes centrosome amplification in somatic cells, a pathology associated with cancer ...

Involvement of synaptonemal complex proteins in sex chromosome segregation during marsupial male meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2006 Marsupial sex chromosomes break the rule that recombination during first meiotic prophase is necessary to ensure reductional segregation during first meiotic division.

Kinetic analysis of synaptonemal complex dynamics during meiosis of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae reveals biphasic growth and abortive disassembly [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a dynamic structure formed between chromosomes during meiosis which stabilizes and supports many essential meiotic processes such as pairing and recombination. In budding yeast, Zip1 is a functionally conserved element of

Diversification and recurrent adaptation of the synaptonemal complex in Drosophila. [PDF]
PLoS GeneticsThe synaptonemal complex (SC) is a protein-rich structure essential for meiotic recombination and faithful chromosome segregation. Acting like a zipper to paired homologous chromosomes during early prophase I, the complex is a symmetrical structure where

A first genetic portrait of synaptonemal complex variation.
PLoS Genetics, 2019 The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a proteinaceous scaffold required for synapsis and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Although the SC has been linked to differences in genome-wide crossover rates, the genetic basis of standing ...

Synaptonemal Complex dimerization regulates chromosome alignment and crossover patterning in meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2021 During sexual reproduction the parental homologous chromosomes find each other (pair) and align along their lengths by integrating local sequence homology with large-scale contiguity, thereby allowing for precise exchange of genetic information.
