Circadian clock proteins in mood regulation [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2015 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]
Molecular Systems BiologyUnderstanding 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 ...

Melatonin regulates circadian clock proteins expression in allergic airway inflammation [PDF]
HeliyonAsthma 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 ...

Circadian clock proteins in prokaryotes: hidden rhythms? [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2010 Circadian clock genes are vital features of eukaryotes that have evolved such that organisms can adapt to our planet’s rotation in order to anticipate the coming day or night as well as unfavorable seasons.

Clock proteins regulate spatiotemporal organization of clock genes to control circadian rhythms. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021 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

Clock proteins: Turned over after hours? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2000 Light sensitivity and the involvement of unstable proteins are key features of circadian clocks. Both photoreception and ubiquitin conjugation may be associated with nuclear regulators encoded by genes recently identified in Arabidopsis.

Expression Patterns of Clock Gene mRNAs and Clock Proteins in Human Psoriatic Skin Samples. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2021 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

Molecular clock in neutral protein evolution. [PDF]
BMC Genetics, 2004 Abstract Background A frequent observation in molecular evolution is that amino-acid substitution rates show an index of dispersion (that is, ratio of variance to mean) substantially larger than one. This observation has been termed the overdispersed molecular clock.
