FunctionSYCE3_MOUSE Major component of the transverse central element of synaptonemal complexes (SCS), formed between homologous chromosomes during meiotic prophase. Required for chromosome loading of the central element-specific SCS proteins, and for initiating synapsis between homologous chromosomes. Chromosome loading appears to require SYCP1. Required for fertility. May play a role in apoptosis of spermatogenic cells and pathogenesis of cryptorchidism.[1] [2] References
