They
remained activated long after the
gene expression had turned off or gone down in the control animals, thus confirming the earlier observation that the virus causes the
immune system to overreact.
This observation suggests that the bulk of
genes involved in Nasonia
immune response
remain uncharacterized, with the current study being the first identification of additional candidate
genes for immunity based on functional response to infection.
Most
genes that regulate important biological processes, including the
immune system and metabolism, are unable to adapt to new patterns of sleeping and eating, and
remain tuned to their normal daytime biological clock rhythms.
