Abstract excerpt
Neural circadian pacemakers can be reset by light, and the resetting mechanism may involve cyclic nucleotide second messengers. We have examined pacemaker resetting and free-running activity rhythms in Drosophila dunce (dnc) and DC0 mutants, which identify a cAMP specific phosphodiesterase and the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, respectively. dnc mutants exhibit augmented light-induced phase...
