In most eukaryotes, the meiotic chromosomal bouquet (comprising clustered chromosome ends) provides an ordered chromosome arrangement that facilitates pairing and recombination between homologous chromosomes. In the protist Tetrahymena thermophila, the meiotic prophase nucleus stretches enormously and chromosomes assume a bouquet-like arrangement in which telomeres and centromeres are attached to opposite poles of the nucleus. We have identified and characterized three meiosis-specific genes (MELG1-3) that control nuclear elongation and centromere and telomere clustering. Hence, to find out potential interactions, we did LC-MS/MS analysis for Melg1, Melg2, Melg3, and Tass1 (a partner of Melg3) immunoprecipitation samples.
