Circadian rhythms: Something to cry about?

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Recent studies suggest that a class of proteins known as cryptochromes have an evolutionarily conserved role in the entrainment of circadian rhythms to the night-day cycle. While the evidence reported is intriguing, the notion that cryptochromes have the same role in all species requires further investigation.
