Abstract

Germ cells, such as oocytes and spermatocytes, produce haploid gametes by a special type of cell division called meiosis. The reduction of chromosome number is achieved in meiosis I, in which homologous chromosomes (homologs) are paired and recombined with their counterparts and finally segregated from each other. How meiotic chromosomes behave in a different manner from mitotic chromosomes has been a fascinating problem for cellular and developmental biology. Cohesin and condensin are multi-subunit protein complexes that play central roles in sister chromatid cohesion and chromosome condensation (also segregation), respectively. Recent studies investigating the expression and function of cohesin and condensin in mammalian germ cells greatly advance our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying the meiotic chromosomal events. Furthermore, accumulating evidence suggests that reduction of cohesin during prophase I arrest in mammalian oocytes is one of the major causes for age-related chromosome segregation error. This review focuses on the regulation and functions of cohesins and condensins during mammalian meiosis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 06 August 2017.
All research outputs
#14,499,715
of 23,237,082 outputs
Outputs from Results and problems in cell differentiation
#75
of 217 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#231,275
of 422,228 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Results and problems in cell differentiation
#11
of 39 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,237,082 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 217 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 60% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 422,228 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 39 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its contemporaries.
