Circadian biology research, explained
5 open-access circadian biology studies, each with a flashcard deck and a quiz.
- Does the plant clock gate auxin responses?
The Arabidopsis circadian clock regulates auxin-responsive transcription and gates growth responses to auxin.
- Tiling arrays reveal plant circadian RNAs
Genome tiling arrays uncover extensive circadian-regulated transcription across the Arabidopsis genome.
- How does food reset the liver clock?
The gut incretin oxyntomodulin (OXM) links food intake to resetting of the hepatic circadian clock and metabolism.
- CK1ε, PERIOD2, and cancer-selective growth arrest
Cancer cells depend more than normal cells on casein kinase 1-epsilon; inhibiting CK1ε causes PERIOD2-dependent growth arrest.
- Does light control fungal cellulase genes?
Neurospora photoreceptors WC-1, WC-2 and VVD influence cellulase expression; light-modulated cellulase regulation is conserved in filamentous fungi.
