Period Protein Is Necessary for Circadian Control of Egg Hatching Behavior in the Silkmoth Antheraea pernyi [PDF]
We examined the molecular basis of the circadian control of egg hatching behavior in the silkmoth Antheraea pernyi. Egg hatching is rhythmically gated, persists under constant darkness, and can be entrained by light by midembryogenesis. The time of appearance of photic entrainment by the silkmoth embryo coincides with the appearance of Period (PER) and

Generation of Human CRY1 and CRY2 Knockout Cells Using Duplex CRISPR/Cas9 Technology
Circadian clocks are endogenous oscillators essential for orchestrating daily rhythms in physiology, metabolism and behavior. While mouse models have been instrumental to elucidate the molecular mechanism of circadian rhythm generation, our knowledge ...

Rheostatic Balance of Circadian Rhythm and Autophagy in Metabolism and Disease
Circadian rhythms are physical, behavioral and environmental cycles that respond primarily to light and dark, with a period of time of approximately 24 h.

The Drosophila period protein (PER) is a predominantly nuclear protein and a likely component of a circadian clock. PER is required for daily oscillations in the transcription of its own gene and thus participates in a circadian feedback loop.

Circadian Clock Neurons in the Silkmoth Antheraea pernyi: Novel Mechanisms of Period Protein Regulation [PDF]
We examined Period (PER) protein regulation in the brain of the silkmoth Antheraea pernyi. PER expression is restricted to the cytoplasm and axons of eight neurons, with no evidence of temporal movement into the nucleus. These neurons appear to be circadian clock cells, because PER and per mRNA are colocalized and their levels oscillate in these cells,

Splice variants of DOMINO control Drosophila circadian behavior and pacemaker neuron maintenance.
Circadian clocks control daily rhythms in behavior and physiology. In Drosophila, the small ventral lateral neurons (sLNvs) expressing PIGMENT DISPERSING FACTOR (PDF) are the master pacemaker neurons generating locomotor rhythms.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) regulates the circadian clock
Circadian oscillations emerge from transcriptional and post-translational feedback loops. An important step in generating rhythmicity is the translocation of clock components into the nucleus, which is regulated in many cases by kinases.

Transcriptional Feedback Loops in the Caprine Circadian Clock System
The circadian clock system is based on interlocked positive and negative transcriptional and translational feedback loops of core clock genes and their encoded proteins.

Age-Related Changes in the Expression of the Circadian Clock Protein PERIOD in Drosophila Glial Cells [PDF]
Circadian clocks consist of molecular negative feedback loops that coordinate physiological, neurological, and behavioral variables into "circa" 24-h rhythms. Rhythms in behavioral and other circadian outputs tend to weaken during aging, as evident in progressive disruptions of sleep-wake cycles in aging organisms.
