A-to-I RNA editing enzyme ADAR2 regulates light-induced circadian phase-shift
Abstract In mammals, the central circadian clock is located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus and it orchestrates peripheral clocks in the whole body to organize physiological and behavioral rhythms. Light-induced phase-shift of the SCN clock enables synchronization of the cir...
