A highly compacted molecule of DNA and associated proteins resulting in a cytologically distinct structure. The region of a condensed chromosome in the nucleus that includes the centromere and associated proteins, including the kinetochore. In monocentric chromosomes, this region corresponds to a single area of the chromosome, whereas in holocentric chromosomes, it is evenly distributed along the chromosome. A highly compacted molecule of DNA and associated proteins resulting in a cytologically distinct structure that remains in the nucleus. A proteinaceous scaffold found between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Conserved heterotrimeric complex of PCNA-like proteins that is loaded onto DNA at sites of DNA damage. A structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. A cohesin complex required for cohesion between sister chromatids that remain in the nucleus. A multisubunit protein complex that plays a central role in the condensation of chromosomes that remain in the nucleus. A chromosome found in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. A connection formed between chromatids, visible during meiosis, thought to be the point of the interchange involved in crossing-over. An electron dense structure that is associated with meiotic chromosomes. A proteinaceous scaffold associated with S. pombe chromosomes during meiotic prophase. Linear elements have a structure related to but not equivalent to the synaptonemal complex. Any constituent part of the nucleus, a membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated.
