The CONSTANS flowering complex controls the protective response of photosynthesis in the green alga Chlamydomonas
In flowering plants, the CONSTANS (CO) and Nuclear Factor Y (NF-Y) transcription factors connect light perception to floral induction. Here Tokutsu et al. show that in the green alga Chlamydomonas, CO and NF-Y form an analogous complex that can prevent photodamage in response to excess light.
