Revealing circadian mechanisms of integration and resilience by visualizing clock proteins working in real time

The circadian clock proteins KaiA, KaiB, and KaiC reconstitute a circa-24 h oscillation of KaiC phosphorylation in vitro. Here the authors use high-speed atomic force microscopy to visualize in real time and quantify the dynamic interactions of KaiA with KaiC on the sub-second timescale to discover...
