Example sentences for: bmal

How can you use “bmal” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Upon release into constant darkness cry1,2 -/-mice immediately become arrhythmic at the behavioral level [ 22 23 ] , at the level of SCN electrophysiology [ 28 ] , and at the cellular/molecular level [ 23 ] . Of the available mouse models for circadian dysfunction, only per1,2 double mutant mice [ 29 ] , bmal1 knockout mice [ 30 ] , and mice with an ablation of the SCN [ 31 ] show a similarly dramatic phenotype.

  • Finally, from a functional perspective, it is interesting that CLOCK/NPAS2:BMAL1 transcriptional activity is sensitive to redox state [ 24 ] . This transcriptional activity might thus provide a link between neuronal activity and an energy regulatory function for NREMS, as has been suggested previously [ 55 ] .

  • Deletion of the cryptochromes disinhibits the transcriptional activation of CLOCK:BMAL1 and NPAS2:BMAL1 target genes, resulting in increased levels of their transcripts in the SCN, liver, and retina [ 20 23 25 ] . We assayed the expression in the brain of three genes that are known targets of cryptochrome mediated transcriptional inhibition: albumin D-binding protein ( dbp [ 26 ] ), period (per)1 , and per2 [ 20 23 27 ] , in the middle of the daily light period.

  • For five other targets ( bmal1 , clock , npas2 , per3 , and csnk1e ), expression was quantified in the cortex only.

  • At least 90 genes are regulated in a similar fashion by NPAS2:BMAL1 [ 37 ] and the identity of the target genes critical for the NREMS phenotype in cry1,2 -/- mice remains to be determined.
