Abstract excerpt
Arabidopsis genes MYR1 and MYR2 are regulators of flowering time under low light intensity. These Myb-related genes are expressed as alternative splice variants affected in their coiled-coil and DNA-binding domains. We tested whether alternative splicing could affect dimerization and localization of MYR1 and MYR2, thereby potentially affecting their activity. Using MYR1 as a model for variants within the...
