Abstract excerpt
The recognition and alignment of homologous chromosomes early in meiosis is essential for their subsequent segregation at anaphase I; however, the mechanism by which this occurs is unknown. We demonstrate here that, in the absence of the molecular motor, Kar3p, meiotic cells are blocked with prop...
