Elovl3: a model gene to dissect homeostatic links between the circadian clock and nutritional statuss⃞
The ELOVL3 protein is a very long-chain fatty acid elongase found in liver, skin, and brown adipose tissues. Circadian expression of the Elovl3 gene in the liver is perturbed in mutant CLOCK mice but persists in mice with severe hepatic dysfunction. A reliance on an intact clock, combined with the r...
