septin proteins	Protein	part of	Reviewed label only (reviewed name; no accession asserted)			ESSENTIAL	Septin GTPases that assemble into the heterooligomeric septin complex acting during meiotic cell division. `GO:0032152` GO:0032152 defines the meiotic septin complex as a heterooligomeric septin complex. `GO:0031105` GO:0031105 defines septin complexes as septin-containing, typically oligomeric protein complexes.

meiotic cell division support — The meiotic septin complex is a heterooligomeric septin complex that acts during meiotic cell division.
- GO:0032152 GO:0032152 defines the complex by its action during meiotic cell division.

Septin proteins form a heterooligomeric septin complex that acts during meiotic cell division.

INTERPRETATION (RESOLVED): Keep the meiotic septin complex distinct from the parent septin complex, the mitotic septin complex, and higher-order septin rings. GO:0032152 denotes the heterooligomeric septin complex that acts during meiotic cell division. GO:0031105 is the broader septin-complex parent, GO:0032151 denotes the mitotic counterpart, and GO:0005940 denotes a higher-order septin ring rather than the oligomeric complex.
CURATION_TODO (OPEN): Resolve exact source-neutral family groundings and species boundaries for meiotic septin-complex septin proteins. The initial meiotic septin complex record uses a reviewed-label-only septin protein cohort rather than guessing a family CURIE or importing species-specific paralogs into the generic GO:0032152 record.

GO:0032152 Gene Ontology cellular-component term for the meiotic septin complex.
GO:0031105 OLS reports GO:0031105 septin complex as the direct GO:0032152 parent.
