Corona is required for higher-order assembly of transverse filaments into full-length synaptonemal complex in Drosophila oocytes.
The synaptonemal complex (SC) is an intricate structure that forms between homologous chromosomes early during the meiotic prophase, where it mediates homolog pairing interactions and promotes the formation of genetic exchanges. In Drosophila melanogaster, C(3)G protein forms the transverse filament...
