Circadian rhythmicity and photic plasticity of myosin gene transcription in fast skeletal muscle of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
Lazado, Carlo Cabacang; Nagasawa, Kazue; Babiak, Igor; Kumaratunga, Palawinnage Hiruni Senari; Fernandes, Jorge M.O. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The circadian rhythm is a fundamental adaptive mechanism to the daily environmental changes experienced by many organisms, including fish. Myosins constitute a large family of contractile proteins that are essential ... -
In vitro and ex vivo models indicate that the molecular clock in fast skeletal muscle of Atlantic cod is not autonomous
Lazado, Carlo Cabacang; Kumaratunga, Palawinnage Hiruni Senari; Nagasawa, Kazue; Babiak, Igor; Caipang, Christopher Marlowe A.; Fernandes, Jorge M.O. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The hypothesis that the circadian rhythm is exclusively regulated by a central clock has been challenged by the discovery of peripheral oscillators. These peripheral clocks are known to have a direct influence on the ...
