Abstract
Meiotic pairing involves a two-step process of DNA double-strand break (DSB)-independent chromosome alignment and precise sequence matching at DSBs. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Boateng et al. (2013) uncover a requirement in the alignment step for SPO11, a nuclease required for DSB formation, independent of its enzymatic activity.
