GABA from vasopressin neurons regulates the time at which suprachiasmatic nucleus molecular clocks enable circadian behavior.
Takashi Maejima,Yusuke Tsuno,Shota Miyazaki,Yousuke Tsuneoka,Emi Hasegawa,Tarikul Islam,Ryosuke Enoki,Takahiro J. Nakamura,Michihiro Mieda +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a specific deletion of the vesicular GABA transporter in arginine vasopressin (AVP)-producing neurons was found to cause an impairment of the circadian rhythm in mice.

Regulation of the cycling of timeless (tim) RNA
Garrick K. Wang,Andrea Ousley,Thomas K. Darlington,Dechun Chen,Yifeng Chen,Weili Fu,Lesley J. Hickman,Steve A. Kay,Amita Sehgal +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of E-box elements in regulating behavioral rhythmicity and tim gene expression was investigated in Drosophila, where the first intron of the tim gene was investigated through cell culture experiments.

Mutagenesis and Mapping of a Mouse Gene, Clock, Essential for Circadian Behavior
Martha Hotz Vitaterna,David P. King,Anne Marie Chang,Jon M. Kornhauser,Phillip L. Lowrey,J. David McDonald,J. David McDonald,William F. Dove,Lawrence H. Pinto,Fred W. Turek,Joseph S. Takahashi +10 more
TL;DR: The power of ENU mutagenesis combined with the ability to clone murine genes by map position provides a generally applicable approach to study complex behavior in mammals.
Individual neurons dissociated from rat suprachiasmatic nucleus express independently phased circadian firing rhythms
TL;DR: It is suggested that the SCN contains a large population of autonomous, single-cell circadian oscillators, and that synapses formed in vitro are neither necessary for operation of these oscillators nor sufficient for synchronizing them.

TL;DR: CLOCK represents the second example of a PAS domain-containing clock protein (besides Drosophila PERIOD), which suggests that this motif may define an evolutionarily conserved feature of the circadian clock mechanism.

TL;DR: The dominant late elongated hypocotyl (lhy) mutation of Arabidopsis disrupted circadian clock regulation of gene expression and leaf movements and caused flowering to occur independently of photoperiod.
