A role for cryptochromes in sleep regulation

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2002
Background The cryptochrome 1 and 2 genes (cry1 and cry2) are necessary for the generation of circadian rhythms, as mice lacking both of these genes (cry1,2-/-) lack circadian rhythms.

The Coevolution of Blue-Light Photoreception and Circadian Rhythms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sunlight is a primary source of energy for life. However, its UV component causes DNA damage. We suggest that the strong UV component of sunlight contributed to the selective pressure for the evolution of the specialized photoreceptor cryptochrome from ...

Perception of Sunflecks by the UV-B Photoreceptor UV RESISTANCE LOCUS8 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sunflecks, transient patches of light that penetrate through gaps in the canopy and transiently interrupt shade, are eco-physiologically and agriculturally important sources of energy for carbon gain, but our molecular understanding of how plant organs ...

Molecular basis for blue light-dependent phosphorylation of Arabidopsis cryptochrome 2

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Plant cryptochromes are regulated by blue-light dependent phosphorylation. Here the authors map thein vivo phosphorylation sites of Arabidopsiscryptochrome 2 and identify four closely related kinases that act to both activate and destabilize the receptor

An evolutionary hotspot defines functional differences between CRYPTOCHROMES

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The molecular mechanisms that define the periodicity or rate of the circadian clock are not well understood. Here the authors use a multidisciplinary approach and identify a mechanism for period regulation that depends on the affinity of the core clock ...
