Abstract
Recent studies suggest that a common theme links the diverse elements of pineal photoneuroendocrine transduction--regulation via binding to 14-3-3 proteins. The elements include photoreception, neurotransmission, signal transduction and the synthesis of melatonin from tryptophan. We review general aspects of 14-3-3 proteins and their biological function as binding partners, and also focus on their roles in pineal photoneuroendocrine transduction.Entities:
