For example, in Drosophila the circadian oscillator controlling behavioral rhythmicity can be localized to a small set of lateral neurons in the brain [ 32] while circadian transcription of the clock gene, period , occurs in multiple tissues and organs even when isolated to an in vitro setting [ 33].
For example, luc reporters have been employed to identify previously unappreciated genes that are involved in circadian timing [ 21 22 ] as well as to demonstrate the presence of circadian clocks in isolated Drosophila tissues.
Scientists once dismissed daily biological cycles as preposterous, but they now widely accept that body temperature, alertness, memory, and mood all fluctuate according to a predictable "circadian" rhythm.
Upon release into constant darkness cry1,2 -/-mice immediately become arrhythmic at the behavioral level [ 22 23 ] , at the level of SCN electrophysiology [ 28 ] , and at the cellular/molecular level [ 23 ] . Of the available mouse models for circadian dysfunction, only per1,2 double mutant mice [ 29 ] , bmal1 knockout mice [ 30 ] , and mice with an ablation of the SCN [ 31 ] show a similarly dramatic phenotype.
We [ 21 ] and others [ 22 ] previously characterized genes for highly related proteins in X. laevis, M. musculus and H. sapiens (named nocturnin, "mCCR4" and "hCCR4" ), disclosing circadian expression [ 22 ] , and with C-terminus displaying significant similarity with the C-terminus of yCCR4 (close to 30%).
