A role of cryptochrome for magnetic field-dependent improvement of sleep quality, lifespan and motor function in <i>Drosophila</i>

2021-08-04

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the molecular genetic basis of animal magnet reception has been one of the big challenges in biology. Recently it was discovered that the magnetic sense of Drosophila melanogaster is mediated by the ultraviolet (UV)-A/blue light photoreceptor cryptochrome ( Cry ). Here, using the fruit fly as a magnet receptive model organism, we show that exposure to a specific AC magnetic field during night tim...
