Circadian rhythms: molecular basis of the clockL D Wilsbacher
Department of Neurobiology and Physiology, Northwestern University, 2153 N Campus Drive, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA
Curr Opin Genet Dev 8:595-602. 1998..In addition, the discovery of brain-independent clocks promises to revolutionize the study of circadian biology...
Functional identification of the mouse circadian Clock gene by transgenic BAC rescueM P Antoch
National Science Foundation Center for Biological Timing, Department of Neurobiology and Physiology, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA
Cell 89:655-67. 1997..Taken together, these results provide a proof of principle that "cloning by rescue" is an efficient and definitive method in mice...
The mouse Clock locus: sequence and comparative analysis of 204 kb from mouse chromosome 5L D Wilsbacher
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Neurobiology and Physiology, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA
Genome Res 10:1928-40. 2000..Finally, a new BAC transgenic line indicates that the genomic region that is sufficient for rescue of the Clock mutant phenotype is no greater than 120 kb and tightly flanks the 3' end of the Clock gene...
Positional cloning of the mouse circadian clock geneD P King
National Science Foundation Center for Biological Timing, Department of Neurobiology and Physiology, Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois 60208, USA
Cell 89:641-53. 1997..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...
Role of the CLOCK protein in the mammalian circadian mechanismN Gekakis
Department of Neurobiology, Harvard Medical School, Boston MA 02115, USA 02115, USA
Science 280:1564-9. 1998..Thus, CLOCK-BMAL1 heterodimers appear to drive the positive component of per transcriptional oscillations, which are thought to underlie circadian rhythmicity...
Mop3 is an essential component of the master circadian pacemaker in mammalsM K Bunger
The McArdle Laboratory for Cancer Research, University of Wisconsin Medical School, Madison, WI 53706, USA
Cell 103:1009-17. 2000..These results provide genetic evidence that MOP3 is the bona fide heterodimeric partner of mCLOCK. Furthermore, these data demonstrate that MOP3 is a nonredundant and essential component of the circadian pacemaker in mammals...
