Functional genomics of the avian circadian system
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)
The genetic identification of molecular mechanisms responsible for circadian rhythm generation has advanced tremendously over the past 25 years. However the molecular identities of the avian clock remain largely unexplored. ...
Astrocytes and the circadian clock: roles for calcium, light, and melatonin
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
Melatonin is rhythmically synthesized and released by the pineal gland and, in some species, retina during the night and regulates many physiological and behavioral processes in birds and mammals. Chick diencephalic ...
Function of CikA in the cyanobacterial circadian system: the pseudo-receiver domain of CikA regulates the circadian input pathway
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
The circadian input kinase gene (cikA) was first identified from a Tn5 mutant
of Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942. A cikA null strain shows a striking
phenotype related to circadian gene regulation: all sampled loci show ...
