Subcellular_localizationDuring spermatogenesis, AIR-2 localized along the axes of pachytene chromosomes and departed during early diplotene as in oogenesis. However, AIR-2 exhibited a phased reassociation to chromosomes during karysome formation reaching high levels on late karyosome nuclei and concentrating in discrete regions visible on the external surface. As spermatocytes detached from the rachis and transitioned to prometaphase, AIR-2 localized on the short arm of the bivalents. This shift in AIR-2 localization may reflect active cycles of AIR-2 unbinding and rebinding the chromatin or, alternatively, the passive movement of chromatin-bound AIR-2 on structurally dynamic chromosomes.
