| Description | This entry represents a group of plant proteins, including DYAD from Arabidopsis and AMEIOTIC 1 from Zea mays (AM1) and Oryza sativa (OsAM1). DYAD, also known as SWITCH1, is required for the establishment of sister chromatid cohesion and for bivalent formation at meiosis [ ]. It may also be required for meiotic recombination initiation []. AM1 plays an important role in multiple early meiotic processes and may be required for the initiation of meiosis []. OsAM1 has a coiled-coil domain in its central region, it is required for the leptotene-zygotene transition step in meiocytes and plays an important role in the building the proper chromosome structure at the beginning of meiosis []. |
