General Information

Paragraph No	Gene Name	Paragraph Text
15	SPO11	Spo11p induces DSBs and at the same time triggers the elongation of meiotic nuclei (crescents) via an ATR-dependent response in Tetrahymena. The crescent resembles the conserved bouquet arrangement and the fission yeast horsetail nucleus. It promotes meiotic chromosome pairing. Thus, by nuclear elongation and the ensuing close juxtapositioning of homologous chromosome regions within the tubular nucleus, Spo11p ensures that DSBs formed by its activity can be repaired by homologous recombination.
138	SPO11	The gene model is incorrect. See gene_000008668 in FGD for the correct transcript sequence
