Abstract excerpt
In most organisms, circadian oscillators regulate the daily rhythmic expression of clock-controlled genes (ccgs). However, little is known about the pathways between the circadian oscillator(s) and the ccgs. In Neurospora crassa, the frq, wc-1, and wc-2 genes encode components of the frq-oscillator. A functional frq-oscillator is required for rhythmic expression of the morning-specific ccg-1 and ccg-2 genes. In...
