General Information

No.	Gene Name(s)	Paragraph Text
142	MELG2	Melg2 protein localizes to the micronucleus during meiotic prophase. In a melg2 deletion mutant, homologous chromosome pairing and bivalent formation are strongly reduced, and the arrangement of centromeres and telomeres within the meiotic nucleus is abnormal.
