Photomorphogenesis. Seeing the light in plant development

Curr Biol. 1995 May 1;5(5):466-8. doi: 10.1016/s0960-9822(95)00092-3.

Abstract

COP1, a protein thought to repress plant photomorphogenesis in the dark, is nuclear in the dark and cytoplasmic in the light. It may lie on the light signal transduction pathway and may be inactivated intracellularly by light.
