The tau mutation affects temperature compensation of hamster retinal circadian oscillators.

Neuroreport - 20 Apr 1998

Tosini G, Menaker M

Abstract excerpt

Neural retinas of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus) express circadian rhythms of melatonin synthesis when cultured in constant darkness. Retinas from wild-type hamsters synthesize melatonin with a period close to 24 h, while retinas obtained from hamsters homozygous for the circadian mutation tau, which shortens the free-running period of the circadian activity rhythm by 4 h, synthesize melatonin with a...
