Noise reduction by upstream open reading frame

This motion graphic is designed to introduce what is noise, how plant cells reduce the noise and regulate the circadian clock. Animated video is a better tool than a single diagram to introduce the abstract concepts of noise and circadian clock which are related to “time”. The video is also using simple cases around our life to make the concepts more easily to be understand.

在這長約三分鐘的動畫中，主要在介紹基因表現的噪音是甚麼，植物細胞又如何降低這種噪音，進而達到調節植物生理時鐘的目的。由於噪音、生理時鐘的概念皆與「時間」有關，因此利用動畫來表現會比單幅的插圖更為適合。同時，影片內也採用簡易的圖像、生活化的例子，讓大學生更容易理解研究成果。
