Abstract Female germ cells must preserve the integrity of their genome and generate genetic diversity via meiotic recombination. This challenging process is error prone. Highly conserved checkpoint pathways detect errors in recombination and DNA damage, inducing the death of defective oocytes. Nuclear Envelope Membrane Protein (NEMP) homologs are highly conserved proteins critical for fertility in flies, worms, fish and mice.
