The tau mutation shortens the period of rhythmic photoreceptor outer segment disk shedding in the hamster.

Brain research - 30 Sept 1996

Grace M S, Wang L M, Pickard G E, Besharse J C, Menaker M

Abstract excerpt

The outer segments of vertebrate retinal photoreceptors undergo periodic shedding of membrane from their distal tips. This circadian rhythm of disk shedding persists with a period of about 24 h in the absence of external time cues. A circadian oscillator controlling photoreceptor disk shedding may exist in the eye, but in addition, the circadian clock in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) may also...
