Circadian entrainment to red light in Drosophila: requirement of Rhodopsin 1 and Rhodopsin 6.

Neuroreport - 17 Sept 2008

Hanai Shuji, Hamasaka Yasutaka, Ishida Norio

Abstract excerpt

Like most other insects, Drosophila visual system is sensitive to the spectrum of light from ultraviolet to green but is insensitive to red light. The circadian rhythms of Drosophila, however, can be entrained by red light through unknown mechanisms. Here, we discovered the corresponding organ and photopigments responsible for the circadian entrainment of Drosophila to red light from light emitting diode. The...
