Abstract:

Circadian clocks exhibit 'temperature compensation', meaning
that they show only small changes in period over a broad
temperature range. Several clock genes have been implicated in
the temperature-dependent control of period in Arabidopsis. We
show that blue light is essential for this, suggesting that the
effects of light and temperature interact or converge upon
common targets in the circadian clock. Our data demonstrate
that two cryptochrome photoreceptors differentially control
circadian period and sustain rhythmicity across the
physiological temperature range. In order to test the
hypothesis that the targets of light regulation are sufficient
to mediate temperature compensation, we constructed a
temperature-compensated clock model by adding passive
temperature effects into only the light-sensitive processes in
the model. Remarkably, this model was not only capable of full
temperature compensation and consistent with mRNA profiles
across a temperature range, but also predicted the
temperature-dependent change in the level of LATE ELONGATED
HYPOCOTYL, a key clock protein. Our analysis provides a
systems-level understanding of period control in the plant
circadian oscillator.
