Research Abstract |
Circadian clock system integrates various physiological activities in whole body, and exhibits synchronizing properties as adaptive responses toward environments/ stresses. Thus, clock dysfunction become risk factors such for various lifestyle related diseases and cancer. This study examined time-specific and periodic regulatory system with CK2-orchestrated circadian protein phosphorylating oscillator. We elucidated circadian-oscillatory mechanism of CK2 activity and pivotal role of CK2 in integrating circadian system. Additionally, we found clock-synchronization by cell injury stresses, critical in disease processes, heat shock and reactive oxygen species, and integrative role of CK2 in the synergistic clock synchronization and the activation of stress-protective pathways, such as heat-shock response, anti-apoptotic and anti-oxidant pathways.
