A Sextuple Knockout Cell Line System to Study the Differential Roles of CRY, PER, and NR1D in the Transcription-Translation Feedback Loop of the Circadian Clock

The transcription-translation feedback loop (TTFL) is the core mechanism of the circadian rhythm. In mammalian cells, CLOCK-BMAL1 proteins activate the downstream genes by binding on the E-box sequence of the clock-controlled genes. Among these gene products, CRY1, CRY2, PER1, PER2, NR1D1, and NR1D2...
