Clock proteins: turned over after hours?

Curr Biol. 2000 Jul 13;10(14):R529-31. doi: 10.1016/s0960-9822(00)00586-8.

Abstract

Light sensitivity and the involvement of unstable proteins are key features of circadian clocks. Both photoreception and ubiquitin conjugation may be associated with nuclear regulators encoded by genes recently identified in Arabidopsis.
