...found that a majority of the rate constants in the oscillator are not temperature-sensitive, but a small number are—suggesting that the temperature compensation of period length may result from a more fundamental property of the clock. Low proposed that the small number of temperature-sensitive rate constants may play an integral role in entraining the clock to diurnal temperature cycles in the environment...
