Age-dependent accumulation of RAD51 on non-damaged chromosomes prevents chromosome segregation in mammalian oocytes

Masaru Ito, Shou Soeda, Tomo Kondo…·Akira Shinohara

This study shows that RAD51 accumulates on non-damaged chromosomes in aging oocytes, leading to chromosome segregation failure and meiosis I arrest.

Post-translational cleavage of Mei5 of Dmc1 mediator, Mei5-Sae3 complex, in yeast meiosis

Stephen Mwaniki, Priyanka Sawant, Osaretin P. Osemwenkhae…·Akira Shinohara

This study identifies Arg97 and Arg117 in Mei5 as critical for complex formation and post-translational processing in yeast meiosis.

FIGNL1 AAA+ ATPase remodels RAD51 and DMC1 filaments inpre-meiotic DNA replication and meiotic recombination

Masaru Ito, Asako Furukohri, Kenichiro Matsuzaki…·Akira Shinohara

This study shows FIGNL1 regulates RAD51/DMC1 filament dynamics in meiotic recombination by dismantling non-productive assemblies during pre-meiotic S-phase and meiotic prophase I.
