Synaptonemal Complex dimerization regulates chromosome alignment and crossover patterning in meiosis.
During sexual reproduction the parental homologous chromosomes find each other (pair) and align along their lengths by integrating local sequence homology with large-scale contiguity, thereby allowing for precise exchange of genetic information. The Synaptonemal Complex (SC) is a conserved zipper-li...
