Abstract
The significance and mechanism of action of an antisense transcript potentially involved in the generation of a circadian oscillator in Neurospora crassa will be investigated. Proof of a function will be determined from the molecular and overt phenotype of strains in which the antisense transcript is abolished. Biochemical and molecular studies will investigate which processes are regulated and how this regulation is achieved. This work will result in a better understanding of the components required to build a circadian oscillator and will significantly increase what is known about the role of endogenous antisense transcripts in eukaryotes.
