Testis.
Nucleus. Chromosome. Chromosome, centromere. In tripartite segments of synaptonemal complexes, between lateral elements in the nucleus. Its N-terminus is found towards the center of the synaptonemal complex while the C-terminus extends well into the lateral domain of the synaptonemal complex (By similarity). Only rarely detected at centromeres during leptotene and zygotene. Detected at centromeres during mid-diplotene, when it is no longer present along chromosome arms. No longer detected at centromeres at later stages of meiosis (By similarity).
