A molecular model for the role of SYCP3 in meiotic chromosome organisation

A molecular model for the role of SYCP3 in meiotic chromosome organisation

The synaptonemal complex (SC) is an evolutionarily-conserved protein assembly that holds together homologous chromosomes during prophase of the first meiotic division. Whilst essential for meiosis and fertility, the molecular structure of the SC has proved resistant to elucidation. The SC protein SY...
