Meiotic roles for the multifaceted MTREC complex, transcript processing, and facilitation of their maturation. Abnormal meiotic transcripts generated in the absence of functional MTREC and some EJC orthologs are targeted for degradation. Physical interactions between MTREC and the EJC ensure their close proximity to accurately govern the regulation of meiotic gene expression.
