ZFIN GO: Biological Process: meiotic strand invasion

OBO ID: GO:0000708

Term Name:	meiotic strand invasion		Search Ontology:
Synonyms:	meiotic D-loop biosynthesis meiotic D-loop formation meiotic displacement loop biosynthesis meiotic displacement loop formation
Definition:	The cell cycle process in which the nucleoprotein complex (composed of the broken single-strand DNA and the recombinase) searches and identifies a region of homology in intact duplex DNA. The broken single-strand DNA displaces the like strand and forms Watson-Crick base pairs with its complement, forming a duplex in which each strand is from one of the two recombining DNA molecules. This occurs during meiosis. 10915877
