The cell cycle process in which replicated homologous chromosomes are organized and then physically separated and apportioned to two sets during the mitotic cell cycle. Each replicated chromosome, composed of two sister chromatids, aligns at the cell equator, paired with its homologous partner. One homolog of each morphologic type goes into each of the resulting chromosome sets.

The cell cycle process in which chromatin structure is compacted prior to and during mitosis in eukaryotic cells.

The cell cycle process in which the synaptonemal complex is formed. This is a structure that holds paired chromosomes together during prophase I of meiosis and that promotes genetic recombination.

Compaction of chromatin structure prior to meiosis in eukaryotic cells.

The process in which chromosomes are physically detached from each other during meiosis.

The process in which tRNA genes, which are not linearly connected on the chromosome, are transported in three dimensions to, and maintained together in, the nucleolus. This clustered positioning leads to transcriptional silencing of nearby RNA polymerase II promoters (termed tRNA gene mediated (tgm) silencing) in S. cerevisiae.

The process in which the chromatin structure of the rDNA repeats is compacted. In S. cerevisiae, condensation and resolution of the rDNA occurs during anaphase.

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of meiotic DNA double-strand break formation.

A multisubunit protein complex that plays a central role in the condensation of chromosomes that remain in the nucleus.
