Mammalian peripheral tissues have circadian clocks that keep time by generating daily rhythms of transcription. In an Advanced Online Publication in Nature, Kai-Florian Storch and colleagues at Harvard Medical School, report a comparative analysis of the circadian variation in gene expression in mouse liver and heart (Nature 2002, DOI 10.1038/nature744).Storch et al. used oligonucleotide microarrays to follow changes in the expression of over 12,000 genes over a 24 hour period. They applied a fi

When they compared the sets they found very little overlap, with only 52 genes being common to both...
