A resetting signal between Drosophila pacemakers synchronizes morning and evening activity
Article Abstract:
Behavioral and molecular experiments are conducted on Drosophila to show that the six canonical groups of clock neurons are organized into two separate neuronal circuits, one of which has no apparent effect on locomotor rhythmicity in darkness and the other circuit in which the molecular and behavioral timing of the evening cells is controlled by morning-cell properties. Results reveal that a daily resetting signal runs at a genetically programmed pace from the morning to the evening cells.

Chromosome cohesion is regulated by a clock gene paralogue TIM-1
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on Drosophila clock protein's paralogue Caenorhabditis elegans TIM-1. The authors discuss the participation of TIM-1 in chromosome cohesion regulation.
