disease:Defects in SYCP3 are associated with azoospermia due to perturbations of meiosis [MIM:270960].,function:Component of the transverse filaments of synaptonemal complexes (SCS), formed between homologous chromosomes during meiotic prophase. Has an essential meiotic function in spermatogenesis. May be important for testis development.,similarity:Belongs to the XLR/SYCP3 family.,subcellular location:In tripartite segments of synaptonemal complexes, irrespective of whether these are synapsed or unsynapsed.,subunit:Interacts with SYCP2.,tissue specificity:Testis-specific.,
Nucleus . Chromosome . Chromosome, centromere . It is present in early unpaired cores, in the lateral domains of the synaptonemal complex and in the chromosome cores when they separate at diplotene. It is found axial to the metaphase I chromosomes and in association with pairs of sister centromeres. The centromere-associated protein becomes dissociated from the centromeres at anaphase II and is not found in mitotic metaphase centromeres. .
Testis-specific.
