SYCP2 is a meiosis‑specific protein that forms the lateral elements of the synaptonemal complex. Its interaction with SYCP3 is essential for chromosome pairing, recombination, and fertility.

SYCP1 is a meiosis‑specific protein that forms the transverse filaments of the synaptonemal complex. Its correct assembly is essential for homologous chromosome pairing, recombination, and fertility.

SYCP3 is a meiosis‑specific protein essential for chromosomal synapsis and the formation of the synaptonemal complex. Mutations in SYCP3 are linked to meiotic arrest, infertility, and genomic instability.
