Abstract excerpt
A blue light (cryptochrome) photoreceptor from Arabidopsis, cry1, has been identified recently and shown to mediate a number of blue light-dependent phenotypes. Similar to phytochrome, the cryptochrome photoreceptors are encoded by a gene family of homologous members with considerable amino acid sequence similarity within the N-terminal chromophore binding domain. The two members of the Arabidopsis cryptochrome...
