Pericentric major satellite transcription is essential for meiotic chromosome stability and spindle pole organization

In somatic cells, mitotic transcription of major satellite non-coding RNAs is tightly regulated and essential for heterochromatin formation and the maintenance of genome integrity. We recently demonstrated that major satellite transcripts are expressed, and chromatin-bound during mouse oocyte meiosi...
