Abstract
Incubation of three clock proteins, KaiA, KaiB, and KaiC, with ATP induces a KaiC phosphorylation cycle that is a potential clock pacemaker in cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 [1,2]. To take a structural snapshot of the oscillator, we followed the dynamic oscillatory processes of the Kai proteins using real-time small-angle x-ray scattering techniques [3]. The scattering pattern of a ternary mixture robustly oscillated with a period of approximately 24 h, indicating a repeated assembly and disassembly of the Kai complexes [4]. In the presentation, we will discuss the size and shape of these clock complexes.
