Journal ArticleDOI

The ELF4 gene controls circadian rhythms and flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana.

TL;DR: The gene EARLY FLOWERING 4 (ELF4), which is involved in photoperiod perception and circadian regulation, is described, which promotes clock accuracy and is required for sustained rhythms in the absence of daily light/dark cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI

The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) protein modification system in Arabidopsis. Accumulation of SUMO1 and -2 conjugates is increased by stress.

TL;DR: Taken together, the SUMO conjugation system appears to be a complex and functionally heterogeneous pathway for protein modification in plants with initial data indicating that one important function may be in stress protection and/or repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soluble, highly fluorescent variants of green fluorescent protein (GFP) for use in higher plants.

TL;DR: Through site-directed mutagenesis, a more soluble version of the codon-modified GFP called soluble- modified GFP (smGFP) is generated, which will further the use of this reporter in higher plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

The molecular basis of temperature compensation in the Arabidopsis circadian clock

TL;DR: Numerical simulations using the interlocking-loop model show that balancing LHY/CCA1 function against GI and other evening-expressed genes can largely account for temperature compensation in wild-type plants and the temperature-specific phenotypes of gi mutants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacteriophytochromes: phytochrome-like photoreceptors from nonphotosynthetic eubacteria.

TL;DR: Sequence homology and mutational analysis suggest that D. radiodurans bacteriophytochrome functions as a light-regulated histidine kinase, which helps protect the bacterium from visible light.
