Circadian clock proteins in mood regulation [PDF]
Mood regulation is known to be affected by the change of seasons. Recent research findings have suggested that mood regulation may be influenced by the function of circadian clocks.

Abundant clock proteins point to missing molecular regulation in the plant circadian clock [PDF]
Understanding the biochemistry behind whole-organism traits such as flowering time is a longstanding challenge, where mathematical models are critical. Very few models of plant gene circuits use the absolute units required for comparison to biochemical ...

Potential conservation of circadian clock proteins in the phylum Nematoda as revealed by bioinformatic searches. [PDF]
Although several circadian rhythms have been described in C. elegans, its molecular clock remains elusive. In this work we employed a novel bioinformatic approach, applying probabilistic methodologies, to search for circadian clock proteins of several of

Clock proteins regulate spatiotemporal organization of clock genes to control circadian rhythms. [PDF]
ABSTRACTCircadian clocks regulate ∼24 hour oscillations in gene expression, behavior, and physiology. While the molecular and neural mechanisms of circadian rhythms are well characterized, how cellular organization of clock components controls circadian clock regulation remains poorly understood. Here, we elucidate how clock proteins regulate circadian

Expression Patterns of Clock Gene mRNAs and Clock Proteins in Human Psoriatic Skin Samples. [PDF]
Psoriasis is a systemic inflammatory skin disorder that can be associated with sleep disturbance and negatively influence the daily rhythm. The link between the pathomechanism of psoriasis and the circadian rhythm has been suggested by several previous studies. However, there are insufficient data on altered clock mechanisms in psoriasis to prove these

Melatonin regulates circadian clock proteins expression in allergic airway inflammation [PDF]
Asthma demonstrates a strong circadian rhythm with disrupted molecular clock. Melatonin which can directly regulate circadian rhythm has been reported to alleviate asthma, but whether this effect is related to its regulation on circadian clock has not ...

SnapShot: Circadian Clock Proteins
The earth’s rotation about its axis generates predictable changes in light and temperature, which define the 24 hr day-night cycle. Organisms from bacteria to humans have evolved an internal timekeeper to anticipate these environmental changes. This timekeeper—the circadian clock—allows organisms to parse biological processes to the appropriate time of
