| Cellular localization: |
Nucleus . Chromosome . In meiotic chromosomes, localized along axial elements in early meiosis: detectable on the axial elements in leptotene, and stays on the axial/lateral elements until mid pachytene. It then disappears and is replaced with RAD21. Compared to REC8, has mutually exclusive loading sites on the chromosomes: REC8 and RAD21L form distinct cohesin-enriched domains along the axial elements. . |
