High protein copy number is required to suppress stochasticity in the cyanobacterial circadian clock
Circadian clocks must maintain their fidelity despite stochasticity arising from finite protein copy numbers. Here, the authors show that a small cyanobacterium relies on an environmentally driven timer likely because its low protein copy numbers cannot support an accurate free-running clock.
