On the other hand, CLOCK:BMAL 1 is also able to activate the transcription of retinoic acid-related nuclear receptors: Rev-erbα and Rorα.These proteins have the ability to regulate the transcription of Bmal1, RORα as an activator and REV-ERBα as a repressor. | On the other hand, CLOCK:BMAL 1 is also able to activate the transcription of retinoic acid-related nuclear receptors: Rev-erbα and Rorα.These proteins have the ability to regulate the transcription of Bmal1, RORα as an activator and REV-ERBα as a repressor. | ||
But this molecular clock is also regulated by post-translational modifications of the subunits, notably phosphorylation and ubiquitination. Some modifiers proteins can modify the stabibility or influence the translocation of some core clock actors, including BMAL1 and CLOCK. That's the case of 2 types of Casein kinase 1 (CK1). Mutations in these modifiers can shorten the circadian cycle of the mamals and cause serious sleep disorders. | But this molecular clock is also regulated by post-translational modifications of the subunits, notably phosphorylation and ubiquitination.

Nevertheless recents studies showed that every cell has its autonomy towards the circadian cycle and it is important to notice that the two genes Clock and Bmal1 are not identically expressed in every tissues and that the two proteins don't act the same way in this different cell types. | Nevertheless recents studies showed that every cell has its autonomy towards the circadian cycle and it is important to notice that the two genes Clock and Bmal1 are not identically expressed in every tissues and that the two proteins don't act the same way in this different cell types.

The two peptides involved in the dimere have very similar sequences. In ''mus musculus''BMAL1 is 387 residues long and CLOCK is 361. | The two peptides involved in the dimere have very similar sequences. In ''mus musculus''BMAL1 is 387 residues long and CLOCK is 361. | ||
