The enzyme recombinase is required at which stage of meiosis:
Pachytene
Zygotene
Diplotene
Diakinesis
As we discussed in concept
Recombinase -
Crossing over is an enzyme-mediated process and the enzyme involved is called recombinase.
-
and
Pachytene -
The third stage of prophase I, bivalent chromosomes clearly appears as tetrads, crossing over between homologous chromosomes occur.
- wherein
Recombinase participates during pachytene of prophase-I
Option 1)
Pachytene
This option is correct.
Option 2)
Zygotene
This option is incorrect.
Option 3)
Diplotene
This option is incorrect.
Option 4)
Diakinesis
This option is incorrect.
