Synaptonemal Complex Length Variation in Wild-Type Male Mice

Synaptonemal Complex Length Variation in Wild-Type Male Mice

Meiosis yields haploid gametes following two successive divisions of a germ cell in the absence of intervening DNA replication. Balanced segregation of homologous chromosomes in Meiosis I is aided by a proteinaceous structure, the synaptonemal complex (SC). The objective of this study was to determi...
