CHROMOSOME MOVEMENTS PROMOTED BY THE MITOCHONDRIAL PROTEIN SPD-3 ARE REQUIRED FOR HOMOLOGY SEARCH DURING CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS MEIOSIS.

Chromosome movements promoted by the mitochondrial protein SPD-3 are required for homology search during Caenorhabditis elegans meiosis.

Pairing of homologous chromosomes during early meiosis is essential to prevent the formation of aneuploid gametes.Chromosome pairing includes a step of homology search followed by the stabilization of homolog interactions by the synaptonemal complex (SC).These events coincide with dramatic changes in nuclear organization and rapid chromosome moveme
