Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fully revised third edition includes up-to-date topics and developments in the field, which has made tremendous strides since the publication of the second edition in 2004. Many novel techniques based on Next Generation Sequencing have sped up the analysis of fungi and major advances have been made in genome editing, leading to a deeper understanding of the genetics underlying cellular processes as well as their applicability. At the same time, the relevance of fungi is unbroken, both due to the serious threats to human health and welfare posed by fungal pests and pathogens, and to the many benefits that fungal biotechnology can offer for diverse emerging markets and processes that form the basis of the modern bioeconomy. With regard to these advances, the first section of this volume, Genetics, illustrates the basic genetic processes underlying inheritance, cell biology, metabolism and “lifestyles” of fungi. The second section, Biotechnology, addresses the applied side of fungal genetics, ranging from new tools for synthetic biology to the biotechnological potential of fungi from diverse environments. Gathering chapters written by reputed scientists, the book represents an invaluable reference guide for fungal biologists, geneticists and biotechnologists alike.

Download or read book Control of Rhythmic Output from the Circadian Clock in Neurospora Crassa written by Zachary Austin Lewis and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Circadian rhythms are visible as daily oscillations in biochemical, physiological, or behavioral processes. These rhythms are produced by an endogenous clock that maintains synchrony with the external environment through responses to external stimuli such as light or temperature. The clock, in turn, coordinates internal processes in a time-dependent fashion. Genetic and molecular analysis of the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa has demonstrated that the products of the frequency (frq) and white-collar (wc-1 and wc-2) genes interact to form an interlocked feedback loop that lies at the heart of the clock in this fungus. This feedback loop, termed the FRQ/WC oscillator, produces a %7E24h oscillation in frq mRNA, FRQ protein, and WC-1 protein. In turn, the FRQ/WC oscillator regulates rhythmic behavior and gene expression. The goal of this dissertation is to understand how rhythmic outputs are regulated by the FRQ/WC oscillator in Neurospora. To this end, we have taken a microarray approach to first determine the extent of clock-controlled gene expression in Neurospora. Here, we show that circadian regulation of gene expression is widespread; 145 genes, representing 20% of the genes we analyzed, are clock-controlled. We show that clockregulation is complex; clock-controlled genes peak at all phases of the circadian cycle. Furthermore, we demonstrate the clock regulates diverse biological processes, such as intermediary metabolism, translation, sexual development and asexual development. WC-1 is required for all light- and clock-regulated gene expression in Neurospora. We have shown that overexpression of WC-1 is sufficient to activate clock-controlled gene expression, but is not sufficient to induce all light-regulated genes in Neurospora. This result indicates that cycling of WC-1 is sufficient to regulate rhythmic expression of a subset of clockcontrolled genes. Conversely, a post-translational mechanism underlies WC-1 mediated light signal transduction in Neurospora. Finally, we have demonstrated the Neurospora circadian system is comprised of mutually coupled oscillators that interact to regulate output gene expression in the fungus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two new volumes of Methods in Enzymology continue the legacy of this premier serial with quality chapters authored by leaders in the field. Circadian Rhythms and Biological Clocks Part A and Part B is an exceptional resource for anybody interested in the general area of circadian rhythms. As key elements of timekeeping are conserved in organisms across the phylogenetic tree, and our understanding of circadian biology has benefited tremendously from work done in many species, the volume provides a wide range of assays for different biological systems. Protocols are provided to assess clock function, entrainment of the clock to stimuli such as light and food, and output rhythms of behavior and physiology. This volume also delves into the impact of circadian disruption on human health. Contributions are from leaders in the field who have made major discoveries using the methods presented here. Continues the legacy of this premier serial with quality chapters authored by leaders in the field Covers research methods in biomineralization science Keeping with the interdisciplinary nature of the circadian rhythm field, the volume includes diverse approaches towards the study of rhythms, from assays of biochemical reactions in unicellular organisms to monitoring of behavior in humans.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goals of the science of photobiology can be divided into four cate gories: to develop (1) ways to optimize the beneficial effects of light on man and his environment, (2) methods to protect organisms, including man, from the detrimental effects of light, (3) photochemical tools for use in studies of life processes, and (4) photochemical therapies in medicine. To achieve these goals will require the knowledgeable collaboration of biologists, chemists, engineers, mathematicians, physicians, and phys icists, because photobiology is a truly multidisciplinary science. While a multidisciplinary science is more intellectually demanding, it also has a greater potential for unexpected breakthroughs that can occur when data from several areas of science are integrated into new concepts for the oretical or practical use. Photochemical and Photobiological Reviews continues to provide in-depth coverage of the many specialty areas of photobiology. It is hoped that these reviews will provide an important service to the younger sci entists in the field and to senior scientists in related fields, because they provide a ready access to the recent literature in the field, and more importantly, they frequently offer a critical evaluation of the direction that the field is taking, or suggest a redirection when appropriate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the invitation to edit this volume, I wanted to take the opportunity to assemble reviews on different aspects of circadian clocks and rhythms. Although most c- tributions in this volume focus on mammalian circadian clocks, the historical int- duction and comparative clocks section illustrate the importance of various other organisms in deciphering the mechanisms and principles of circadian biology. Circadian rhythms have been studied for centuries, but only recently, a mole- lar understanding of this process has emerged. This has taken research on circadian clocks from mystic phenomenology to a mechanistic level; chains of molecular events can describe phenomena with remarkable accuracy. Nevertheless, current models of the functioning of circadian clocks are still rudimentary. This is not due to the faultiness of discovered mechanisms, but due to the lack of undiscovered processes involved in contributing to circadian rhythmicity. We know for example, that the general circadian mechanism is not regulated equally in all tissues of m- mals. Hence, a lot still needs to be discovered to get a full understanding of cir- dian rhythms at the systems level. In this respect, technology has advanced at high speed in the last years and provided us with data illustrating the sheer complexity of regulation of physiological processes in organisms. To handle this information, computer aided integration of the results is of utmost importance in order to d- cover novel concepts that ultimately need to be tested experimentally.
