An RNA Recognition Motif-Containing Protein Functions in Meiotic Silencing by Unpaired DNA

An RNA Recognition Motif-Containing Protein Functions in Meiotic Silencing by Unpaired DNA

Meiotic silencing by unpaired DNA (MSUD) is a biological process that searches pairs of homologous chromosomes (homologs) for segments of DNA that are unpaired. Genes found within unpaired segments are silenced for the duration of meiosis. In this report, we describe the identification and character...
