Research Abstract |
During meiosis, crossover formation between homologous chromosomes is essential for proper segregation of homologous chromosomes. In this study, mutation analysis of Zip3 and identification of Zip3-interacting proteins were performed to reveal how Zip3 contributes to meiotic crossover formation. I revealed that 9-1-1 clamp which localizes on DNA double-strand break sites promotes the localization of Zip3 on the chromosomes, then C-terminus of Zip3 recruits the recombination factor, Msh4-Msh5 complex, to the chromosomes.
