The Germline-Restricted Chromosome of Male Zebra Finches in Meiotic Prophase I: A Proteinaceous Scaffold and Chromatin Modifications
Among eukaryotes, there are many examples of partial genome elimination during ontogenesis. A striking example of this phenomenon is the loss of entire avian chromosomes during meiosis, called a germline-restricted chromosome (GRC). The GRC is absent in somatic tissues but present in germ cells. It...
