Bacillus subtilis has a circadian clock, extending the field of chronobiology to nonphotosynthetic bacteria.
Circadian timing is a fundamental biological process, underlying cellular physiology in animals, plants, fungi, and cyanobacteria. clocks organize gene expression, metabolism, behavior such that they occur at specific times of day. The orchestrate these daily changes confer survival advantage dominate behavior, for example, waking us the morning helping to sleep night. molecular mechanism circadian has been sketched out genetic model systems from prokaryotes humans, revealing combination...
Abstract A transcriptional feedback loop is central to clock function in animals, plants and fungi. The genes involved its regulation are specific - highly conserved within the kingdoms of life. However, other shared mechanisms, such as phosphorylation, mediated by proteins found broadly among living organisms, performing functions many cellular sub-systems. Use homology directly infer involvement/association with mechanism new, developing model systems, therefore limited use. Here we...
