Damped circadian oscillation in the absence of KaiA in Synechococcus

Proteins KaiA, KaiB and KaiC constitute a biochemical circadian oscillator in Synechococcus cyanobacteria. Here, Kawamoto et al. show that kaiBC promoter activity exhibits a damped, low-amplitude circadian oscillation in the absence of KaiA, which could explain the circadian rhythms observed in othe...
