| Research Abstract |
Accumulating evidence suggests that the death domain-associated protein DAXX has a variety of functions in regulating apoptotic pathways. In this study, we have identified BMAL1, an essential circadian regulator, as a novel DAXX-interacting protein. The temporal association of circadian clock components is required for establishing and maintaining circadian rhythms. Notably, the interaction between endogenous DAXX and BMAL1 showed a circadian rhythmicity. Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated silencing of endogenous DAXX expression and genetic ablation of the Daxx gene affected the amplitude of circadian gene expression in mammalian cells. In addition, DAXX enhanced the transcriptional capacity of the BMAL1:CLOCK heterodimer, a vital transcriptional activator in the circadian system. Our results reveal a novel function for DAXX as a modulator of circadian clock regulation.
