Abstract excerpt
The correct separation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis I, and sister chromatids during meiosis II, relies on the tight control of the cohesion complex. The phosphorylation and subsequent cleavage of the meiotic recombination protein REC8 (REC8-like family protein [SYN1] in Arabidopsis [Arabidopsis thaliana]), the α-kleisin subunit of the cohesion ring, along the chromosome arms at meiosis I allows...
