Comment The gene is essential for homologous chromosome synapsis at meiosis I. It encodes a HORMA-domain protein and is an ortholog of Saccharomyces cerevisiae HOP1 (YIL072W) and Arabidopsis ASYNAPTIC 1 (ASY1, At1g67370). The PAIR2 protein associates with axial elements at leptotene and zygotene stages of Meiosis and is removed from the AEs of arm regions when homologous chromosomes have synapsed. It promotes homologous chromosome synapsis.
