Abstract

Summary

The paper discusses the role of the nuclear receptor REV-ERBα in retinal sensitivity to ambient light levels, finding that mice lacking this gene showed increased light sensitivity and higher numbers of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, suggesting that REV-ERBα plays a major role in retinal information processing.
