Revealing Noise-Filtering in Basic Circadian Networks

New research has revealed that a simple circadian clock network possesses advanced noise-filtering capabilities, which improves the understanding of how biological circuits maintain accuracy in dynamic environmental contexts.

The ionic and protonation states of flavin control the activation and recovery of Drosophila cryptochrome

Drosophila cryptochrome (dCry) is a flavin-containing photoreceptor that entrains the circadian clock with light. The C-terminal tail (CTT) release upon illumination is a crucial step for light signal transduction of dCry. Here, we demonstrated that both anionic semiquinone (asq) and...
