Homologue recognition during meiosis is associated with a change in chromatin conformation.

Abstract:

:During meiosis, homologous chromosomes are sorted into pairs and are then intimately aligned, or synapsed, along their lengths while a proteinaceous structure, the synaptonemal complex, is assembled between them. However, little is known about how chromosomes first recognise each other. Here we show, by comparing the behaviour of wild-type wheat and wheat mutant for Ph1 (a suppressor of homeologous chromosome pairing), that when chromosomes recognise a partner to pair with, a conformational change to the chromatin is triggered in both partners that is followed by their intimate alignment [corrected]. Thus, a conformational change in the chromosomes at the onset of meiosis can be correlated directly with recognition.

  • Dissecting the link between stress fibres and focal adhesions by CALI with EGFP fusion proteins.

    abstract::Chromophore-assisted laser inactivation (CALI) is a light-mediated technique used to selectively inactivate proteins within cells. Here, we demonstrate that GFP can be used as a CALI reagent to locally inactivate proteins in living cells. We show that focused laser irradiation of EGFP-alpha-actinin expressed in Swiss ...
