A Mec1- and PP4-Dependent Checkpoint Couples Centromere Pairing to Meiotic Recombination

TL;DR: The centromeric localization and persistent activity of PP4 during meiotic prophase suggest a model whereby Zip1-S75 phosphorylation dynamically destabilizes homology-independent centromere pairing in response to recombination initiation, thereby coupling meiotic chromosome dynamics to DSB repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Smc5/6 coordinates formation and resolution of joint molecules with chromosome morphology to ensure meiotic divisions.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the Smc5/6 complex is required for specific recombination and chromosomal processes throughout meiosis and that in its absence, attempts at cell division with unresolved joint molecules and residual cohesin lead to severe recombination-induced meiotic catastrophe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature-Dependent Modulation of Chromosome Segregation in msh4 Mutants of Budding Yeast

TL;DR: Interactions between genetic (zmm status) and environmental factors in determining chromosome segregation are demonstrated and another ZMM protein, Zip1, is important for the temperature-dependent improvement in spore viability.
