Low-Light Dependence of the Magnetic Field Effect on Cryptochromes: Possible Relevance to Plant Ecology

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Various responses to static magnetic fields (MF) have been reported in plants, and it has been suggested that the geomagnetic field influences plant physiology. Accordingly, diverse mechanisms have been proposed to mediate MF effects in plants.

Conserved structural motifs in PAS, LOV, and CRY proteins regulate circadian rhythms and are therapeutic targets

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 6, Page 910-938, March 2026.
Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

SHELTERING BEHAVIOUR OF SPINYCHEEK CRAYFISH (ORCONECTES LIMOSUS) IN THE PRESENCE OF AN ARTIFICIAL MAGNETIC FIELD

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2005
The potential of artificial hideouts, outfitted with magnets or their imitations (control), to attract spinycheek crayfish Orconectes limosus was studied. The experiments were carried out within 1999-2002 in an 80-hectar natural lake.

A putative design for the electromagnetic activation of split proteins for molecular and cellular manipulation

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
The ability to manipulate cellular function using an external stimulus is a powerful strategy for studying complex biological phenomena. One approach to modulate the function of the cellular environment is split proteins.

Electron spin relaxation can enhance the performance of a cryptochrome-based magnetic compass sensor

New Journal of Physics, 2016
The radical pair model of the avian magnetoreceptor relies on long-lived electron spin coherence. Dephasing, resulting from interactions of the spins with their fluctuating environment, is generally assumed to degrade the sensitivity of this compass to ...

The magnetic model of the single-domain magnetite magnetoreception

四川大学学报. 自然科学版, 2017
Many living beings can distinguish direction and position by using geomagnetic field, while biomagnetites can be found in these living beings, so scholars think that there are magnetoreceptions existing in these living beings which are formed by the ...
