Abstract excerpt
The frog (Xenopus laevis) retina has been an important model for the analysis of retinal circadian rhythms. In this paper, several isoforms of X. laevis casein kinase I (CKI) were analyzed to address whether they are involved in the phosphorylation and degradation of period protein (PER), as they...
