Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Meiosis is a type of cell division, which generates haploid gametes. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes become connected by recombination products called chiasmata. In this study, we examined roles of chiasmata in homologous chromosome segregation and the mechanism of telomere clustering, which is required for chiasma formation, in fission yeast. We found that chiasmata play critical roles in correcting erroneous attachments of chromosomes to the spindle, and that telomere clustering depends on microtubules emanating from the telomeres and microtubule motors.
