Abstract excerpt
In the Neurospora circadian system, the transcription factors White Collar-1 (WC-1) and White Collar-2 (WC-2) activate expression of frq, whose gene product inhibits its own expression. The WC proteins are thought to form an obligate complex; however, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) indicates that WC-2 binds to the frq promoter in a rhythmic fashion, whereas WC-1 is bound continuously. Small oscillations in...
