Oscillating molecules and circadian clock output mechanisms

Molecular Psychiatry volume 3, pages 381–385 (1998)Cite this article

The circadian clock system is crucial for the regulation of daily rhythms in processes ranging from gene expression to the mammalian sleep/wake cycle. This review will summarize evidence from studies in model systems for the involvement of transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms in circadian clock output.
