Abstract

A Timely Structure: The physiology and behavior of most organisms are inextricably aligned with the day/night cycle. In mammals, these daily rhythms are generated by a circadian clock encoded by transcriptional activators and repressors operating in a feedback loop that takes about 24 hours to complete. A key participant in this loop is a heterodimeric transcriptional activator consisting of the CLOCK and BMAL1 proteins. Huang et al. (p. 189 , published online 31 May; see Perspective by Crane ) determined the crystal structure of a complex containing the PAS domains (implicated in protein-protein interactions) and the basic helix-loop-helix domains (implicated in DNA binding) from each protein. CLOCK and BMAL1 were observed to be tightly intertwined in an unusual asymmetric conformation, which may contribute to the stability and activity of the complex.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
