Abstract:Circadian regulation of nuclear receptors in peripheral tissues is important in the timing of key physiological processes. However few studies have examined circadian regulation of estrogen receptor alpha (ERa) protein in cancer or normal tissues, and no studies have evaluated ERα phosphorylation during the circadian cycle. In addition to transcription, protein turnover and posttranslational modifications are important regulatory mechanisms in the circadian control of protein function. ERα protein is important… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
