In Arabidopsis thaliana, a number of circadian-associated factors have been identified. Among those, TOC1 (TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1) is believed to be a component of the central oscillator. TOC1 is a member of a small family of proteins, designated as Arabidopsis PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATORS (APRR1/TOC1, APRR3, APRR5, APRR7, and APRR9). Nonetheless, it is not very clear whether or not the APRR family members other than APRR1/TOC1 are also implicated in the mechanisms underlying the circadian rhythm. To address this issue further, here we characterized a set of T-DNA insertion mutants, each of which is assumed to have a severe lesion in each one of the quintet genes (i.e. APRR5 and APRR7). For each of these mutants (aprr5-11 and aprr7-11) we demonstrate that a given mutation singly, if not directly, affects the circadian-associated biological events simultaneously: (i) flowering time in the long-day photoperiod conditions, (ii) red light sensitivity of seedlings during the early photomorphogenesis, and (iii) the period of free-running rhythms of certain clock-controlled genes including CCA1 and APRR1/TOC1 in constant white light. These results suggest that, although the quintet members other than APRR1/TOC1 may not be directly integrated into the framework of the central oscillator, they are crucial for a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the Arabidopsis circadian clock.
