abstract：:We recently isolated a novel bHLH/PAS protein, CLIF (cycle like factor), by yeast two-hybrid screening of human umbilical endothelial cell cDNA library. CLIF is preferentially expressed in endothelial and neuronal cells. Because CLIF is expressed in vascular endothelial cells and forms a heterodimer with CLOCK, the ke...
