ZMM Proteins and Holliday Junctions Ensure Accurate Meiotic Crossovers
TL;DR Summary
The study reveals a feedback mechanism where double Holliday junctions (dHJs) and ZMM proteins work together to maintain the synaptonemal complex (SC) during meiosis, ensuring crossover formation and suppressing new DNA double-strand breaks, thereby coordinating meiotic progression and crossover assurance.
