Homologous somatic pairing
text:
Somatic pairing of homologous chromosomes is similar to pre- and early meiotic pairing, and has been observed in Diptera (Drosophila), and budding yeast, for example. Mammals show little pairing apart from in germline cells, taking place at specific loci, and under the control of developmental signalling. While meiotic pairing has been extensively studied, the role of somatic pairing has remained less well understood, and even whether it is mechanistically related to meiotic pairing is unknown.
