Inter-sex variation in synaptonemal complex lengths largely determine the different recombination rates in male and female germ cells

1 Jan 2004

Abstract excerpt

Meiotic chromosomes in human oocytes are packaged differently than in spermatocytes at the pachytene stage of meiosis I, when crossing-over takes place. Thus the meiosis-specific pairing structure, the synaptonemal complex (SC), is considerably longer in oocytes in comparison to spermatocytes. The aim of the present study was to examine the influence of this length factor on meiotic recombination in male and...
