Abstract excerpt
Replication protein A (RPA) is involved in many aspects of DNA metabolism including meiotic recombination. Many species possess a single RPA1 gene but Arabidopsis possesses five RPA1 paralogues. This feature has enabled us to gain further insight into the meiotic role of RPA1. Proteomic analysis implicated one of the AtRPA1 family (AtRPA1a) in meiosis. Immunofluorescence studies confirmed that AtRPA1a is...
