“…Mutations in the SICKLE ( SIC ) gene, which encodes a nuclear protein implicated in the control of AS, markedly stimulate the accumulation of splice variants of LHY and other clock genes at cool temperatures (Marshall, Tartaglio, Duarte, & Harmon, ). Moreover, sic mutants and mutants in other splicing‐related genes, including for the spliceosomal components GEMIN2 and SKIP , affect the period of the circadian clock (Hernando, Sanchez, Mancini, & Yanovsky, ; Jones et al, ; Marshall et al, ; Sanchez et al, ; Schlaen et al, ; Wang et al, ). Notably, sic , skip , and gemin2 mutants are also impaired in temperature compensation, a defining feature of circadian clocks whereby the pace of the clock is largely unaffected across a range of physiologically relevant temperatures (Pittendrigh, ).…”
