Mammalian Per1 and Per2 genes are involved in the mechanism of the circadian clock and are inducible by light. A light pulse can evoke a change in the onset of wheel-running activity in mice by shifting the onset of activity to earlier times (phase advance) or later times (phase delays) thereby advancing or delaying the clock (clock resetting). To assess the role of mouse Per (mPer) genes in circadian clock...
