Cryptochrome, Phytochrome, and Anthocyanin Production [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1991 Anthocyanin production in cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) seedlings exposed to prolonged irradiations was studied under conditions that allowed discrimination, within certain limits, between the contribution of cryptochrome and phytochrome in the photoregulation of the response. The results of the study provide

Crosstalk between Photoreceptor and Sugar Signaling Modulates Floral Signal Transduction
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Over the past decade, integrated genetic, cellular, proteomic and genomic approaches have begun to unravel the surprisingly crosstalk between photoreceptors and sugar signaling in regulation of floral signal transduction.

Hypothesis on the Role of Cryptochromes in Inflammation and Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Outcome
Frontiers in Neurology, 2017 We have recently found that the temperature variability (TV) in the day–night cycle may predict the mean intracranial pressure in the following 24 h (ICP24) in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients under multimodality monitoring, sedation, and ...

Action Spectrum of Drosophila Cryptochrome [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007 Cryptochromes are a highly conserved class of UV-A/blue light photoreceptors. In Drosophila, cryptochrome is required for the normal entrainment of circadian rhythms to light dark cycles. The photocycle and molecular mechanism of animal cryptochrome photoreception are presently unknown. Drosophila cryptochrome undergoes light-dependent degradation when

Vertebrate Cryptochromes are Vestigial Flavoproteins [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractAll cryptochromes are currently classified as flavoproteins. In animals their best-described role is as components of the circadian clock. This circadian function is variable, and can be either light-dependent or -independent; the molecular origin of this difference is unknown.

Light-responsive expression atlas reveals the effects of light quality and intensity in Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi, a plant with crassulacean acid metabolism. [PDF]
, 2020 BackgroundCrassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), a specialized mode of photosynthesis, enables plant adaptation to water-limited environments and improves photosynthetic efficiency via an inorganic carbon-concentrating mechanism.

Genome biology, 2005 Cryptochromes are photoreceptors that regulate entrainment by light of the circadian clock in plants and animals. They also act as integral parts of the central circadian oscillator in animal brains and as receptors controlling photomorphogenesis in response to blue or ultraviolet (UV-A) light in plants.

Spooky Birds and Origin of Life: A Quantum Mechanics Description of Bird Migration
Jurnal Pendidikan Fisika Indonesia, 2019 In this work we explain a strange quantum phenomenon in biology that the European Robin uses to navigate. The bird’s brain contains a chemical called cryptochromes which has two of its electrons entangled through collision with photons.

Light and temperature receptors and their convergence in plants
Biologia Plantarum, 2020 Light and temperature are two essential environmental cues for plants, helping to optimize plant body architecture and physiology. To sense a broad spectrum of sun radiation spanning from UV-B to far-red wavelength, plants are equipped with a ...
