Assignment of circadian function for the Neurospora clock gene frequency
Role of the frequency gene in controlling the biological clock of Neurospora

Abstract
Experiments indicate that inputs to circadian clocks can be regulated in a rhythmic manner.
- Circadian clocks are composed of inputs, an oscillator, and outputs that manage circadian rhythms.
- Assigning specific molecular components to these elements is challenging.
- Mathematical simulations suggest that altering the expression levels of certain gene products may lead to disrupted rhythms, regardless of their role in the oscillator or input pathways.
- Traditional circadian entrainment protocols were applied to the genetic model system, Neurospora crassa, to further explore these dynamics.
