Abstract excerpt
The genes coding for white collar-1 and white collar-2 (wc-1 and wc-2) have been isolated previously, and their products characterized as Zn-finger transcription factors involved in the control of blue light-induced genes. Here, we show that the PAS dimerization domains present in both proteins enable the WC-1 and WC-2 proteins to dimerize in vitro. Homodimers and heterodimers are formed between the white collar...
