PDF as a coupling mediator between the light-entrainable and temperature-entrainable clocks in Drosophila melanogaster.

Acta biologica Hungarica - 1 Jan 2008

Tomioka K, Miyasako Y, Umezaki Y

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila shows bimodal circadian locomotor rhythms with peaks around light-on (morning peak) and before light-off (evening peak). The rhythm synchronizes to light and temperature cycles and the synchronization is achieved by two sets of clocks: one entrains to light cycles and the other to temperature cycles. The light-entrainable clock consists of the clock neurons located in the lateral protocerebrum (LNs)...
