Male chromosome loss(3)Z2566 is required for paternal chromosome transmission in Drosophila melanogaster 2015 869 Chromatin remodeling is one of the most intriguing features of spermiogenesis, during which nuclei undergo drastic morphological changes leading to extensive nuclear compaction. It is essential for sperm function and proper behavior of paternal chrom...
Determining requirements for meiotic pairing in Drosophila melanogaster Spermatogenesis 2020 238 Diploid germline cells must undergo two consecutive meiotic divisions before differentiating as haploid sex cells. During meiosis I, homologs pair and remain conjoined until segregation at anaphase. Drosophila melanogaster spermatocytes are unique in...
Identification and Characterization of a gene required for meiosis I mono-orientation of sister chromatids in Drosophila 2020 303 Prior to meiosis, kinetochores of sister chromatids are replicated, functional and important for orienting chromosome alignment at the metaphase plate. At meiosis I sister kinetochores must attach to the same spindle pole to ensure that sister chroma...
