A mechanistic insight on how Compromised Hydrolysis of Triacylglycerol 7 (CHT7) restrains the involvement of it's CXC domain from quiescence repression.

CHT7 is a regulator of quiescence repression in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Initially, CHT7's repression activity was thought to be managed by its DNA-binding CXC domain. Later, it was found that the CHT7-CXC domain is dispensable for CHT7's activities.
