Colocalization of the green and red signals (resulting in yellow filaments) indicates synapsed homologous chromosomes. On the right side of the image some chromosomes begin to de-synapse, resulting in thinner green filaments. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57c73718e4fcb5b41e389a55/1473798923333-00SOWWBY7ALZRO4ZNIRU/1.cover.jpg Gallery - Pairing Centers C. elegans chromosomes have a specialized region - Pairing Center - that drives homologue pairing in early meiosis. A time-lapse series (top) shows that movements of the X chromosome (magenta) are mostly led by the pairing centers (green). Mapping the trajectories of multiple pairing centers on a representative nucleus (bottom) illustrates how their motions cover the entire nuclear envelope to help chromosomes find their homologous partner. (From Wynne et al., 2012) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57c73718e4fcb5b41e389a55/1473798947159-O1V5ENETK672OLL9KBJL/Untitled.001.jpeg Gallery - Polycomplexes Electron microscopy reveals the ultrastructure of the synaptonemal complex and of polycomplexes. Left, synapsed chromosomes appear as elongated electron-dense structures that are connected through a 100nm-thick ladder-like synaptonemal complex. Right, when synaptonemal complex material cannot load onto chromosomes, it forms polycomplexes: ordered aggregates that resemble in their order and dimensions stacked synaptonemal complexes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57c73718e4fcb5b41e389a55/1474056580501-WCAQO60MA8YA60DSPVMT/image-asset.jpeg Gallery - TZ Live Time-lapse movie of C. elegans gonad with an SC component labelled in white. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57c73718e4fcb5b41e389a55/1474056707349-OBHD97J4NX13XOWHZV4H/image-asset.jpeg Gallery - Immobilized C. elegans worm https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57c73718e4fcb5b41e389a55/1474057316941-98OZ3O91SSVA6727FD73/image-asset.jpeg Gallery - SC dissolution https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/57c73718e4fcb5b41e389a55/1474069359075-B83KSFTIQP1ADE6BJZVM/2010_11_09_Ofer_Rog_C_Elegans_1_001.jpg Gallery - Synaptonemal Complex C. elegans gonad stained for SC and axis components (red and green, respectively).
