dynein-driven meiotic oscillatory nuclear movement

id: GO:0030989
name: dynein-driven meiotic oscillatory nuclear movement
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The cell cycle process in which oscillatory movement of the nucleus during meiotic prophase I occurs. This oscillatory movement is led by an astral microtubule array emanating from the spindle pole body, and driven by the microtubule motor cytoplasmic dynein. It is known to play a central role in meiotic recombination and homologous chromosome pairing; as observed in S. pombe.
