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...
