Abstract excerpt
PERIOD proteins are central components of the Drosophila and mammalian circadian clock. Their function is controlled by daily changes in synthesis, cellular localization, phosphorylation, degradation, as well as specific interactions with other clock components. Here we present the crystal structure of a Drosophila PERIOD (dPER) fragment comprising two tandemly organized PAS (PER-ARNT-SIM) domains (PAS-A and...
