Abstract:
A small family of clock-regulated pseudo-response regulators (PRRs) plays a number of critical roles in the function of the plant circadian clock. The regulation of the PRRs is complex and entails both transcriptional and posttranslational regulation. PRR proteins engage in a number of important protein-protein interactions, some of which are modulated by modifications including phosphorylation. PRR stability is also tightly controlled. This chapter provides methods for studying both the PRR genes and their encoded proteins.
