Meiosis is one of the defining events in gametogenesis. Male and female germ cells both
undergo one round of meiotic cell division during their development in order to reduce the …

The viability of any species requires that the genome is kept stable as it is transmitted from
generation to generation by the germ cells. One of the challenges to transgenerational …

The cross sections associated with absorption, scattering, extinction, and radiation pressure
for homogenous isotropic spheres illuminated by plane waves are well known. We derive a …

Meiosis is a key event in gametogenesis that generates new combinations of genetic
information and is required to reduce the chromosome content of the gametes. Meiotic …

Conditions on the S matrix which arise from the assumption that it describes interactions
which are at least approximately local are discussed. Particular conditions of this kind, which …

In meiosis, a supramolecular protein structure, the synaptonemal complex (SC), assembles
between homologous chromosomes to facilitate their recombination. Mammalian SC …

Retrotransposons are highly prevalent in mammalian genomes due to their ability to amplify
in pluripotent cells or developing germ cells. Host mechanisms that silence …

Meiosis relies on the SPO11 endonuclease to generate the recombinogenic DNA double
strand breaks (DSBs) required for homologous chromosome synapsis and segregation. The …

10.7554/eLife.39304.001 Male germ cells of all placental mammals express an ancient
nuclear RNA binding protein of unknown function called RBMXL2. Here we find that deletion of …
