Research Abstract |
Pairing of homologous chromosome is an essential step in meiosis to ensure effective homologous recombination and reductional segregation in meiotic division. However, no mechanisms for chromosome specific recognition have ever been found. Here we found a meiotic-specific non-coding RNA, meiRNA-L, which forms an RNA dot on chromosome, plays an important role in recognition and pairing of homologous chromosome in early stage of meiosis.
