Circadian Rhythm of Gene Expression Patterns in Liver of Mouse

Genes encoding the circadian pacemaker in the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of mammals have recently been identified, but the molecubasis of circadian timing in peripheral tissue is not well understood. We used a bead-based microarray to identify mouse liver transcripts that show circadian cycles of abundance under constant conditions.
