Epigenetics of the Synaptonemal Complex
Meiosis is a process composed of two divisions of the germ line cells without an intervenient S phase, thus there is no duplication of DNA between the first and the second meiotic divisions. The first meiotic division begins with the pre-leptotene that is the stage where the DNA replicates and chromosomes prepare to enter the meiotic prophase I in most of the organisms with sexual reproduction ...
متن کاملMeiosis in Mice without a Synaptonemal Complex
The synaptonemal complex (SC) promotes fusion of the homologous chromosomes (synapsis) and crossover recombination events during meiosis. The SC displays an extensive structural conservation between species; however, a few organisms lack SC and execute meiotic process in a SC-independent manner. To clarify the SC function in mammals, we have generated a mutant mouse strain (Sycp1(-/-)Sycp3(-/-)...
متن کاملThe synaptonemal complex and the achiasmatic condition.
The onion species AUium amplectans includes both a triploid and a tetraploid variety. By light microscopy both varieties appear to have normal synapsis during pachytene of meiosis. However, the triploid does not form chiasmata and exhibits almost total asynapsis following pachytene. The tetraploid forms at least one chiasma per homologue and retains pairing through metaphase I. Electron-microsc...
متن کاملSynaptonemal complex antigen location and conservation
The axial cores of chromosomes in the meiotic prophase nuclei of most sexually reproducing organisms play a pivotal role in the arrangement of chromatin, in the synapsis of homologous chromosomes, in the process of genetic recombination, and in the disjunction of chromosomes. We report an immunogold analysis of the axial cores and the synaptonemal complexes (SC) using two mouse monoclonal antib...
متن کاملHeterochromatin, the synaptonemal complex and crossing over.
A combined light- and electron-microscopic examination of chromosomes from two angiospermous plants, Plantago ovata and Lycopersicon esculentum, and a mammal, Mus musculus, was performed. From this investigation three observations have been made that may be relevant to the observed lack of crossing over in heterochromatin. (1) Differential staining indicates that heterochromatin represents a sm...
