Abstract

The CRY2 photoreceptor is known to form homotetramers that bind to transcription regulators to affect gene expression in response to light. A new study provides evidence that the CRY2 monomer binds different transcription regulators to affect gene expression in darkness, suggesting that photoreceptors change activity in response to light.

植物生理学：对CRY光感受器的反思。

已知CRY2光受体形成同型四聚体，与转录调节因子结合，影响基因对光的表达。一项新的研究提供了证据，表明CRY2单体结合不同的转录调节因子影响基因在黑暗中的表达，这表明光感受器在光照下改变活性。
