Journal ArticleDOI
The mammalian circadian timing system: organization and coordination of central and peripheral clocks.
TL;DR: This work discusses knowledge acquired during the past few years on the complex structure and function of the mammalian circadian timing system and some of the SCN output pathways serve as input pathways for peripheral tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
SIRT1 Regulates Circadian Clock Gene Expression through PER2 Deacetylation
Gad Asher,David Gatfield,Markus Stratmann,Hans Reinke,Charna Dibner,Florian Kreppel,Raul Mostoslavsky,Frederick W. Alt,Ueli Schibler +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that SIRT1, an NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylase, is required for high-magnitude circadian transcription of several core clock genes, including Bmal1, Rorgamma, Per2, and Cry1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential display of DNA-binding proteins reveals heat-shock factor 1 as a circadian transcription factor
Hans Reinke,Camille Saini,Fabienne Fleury-Olela,Charna Dibner,Ivor J. Benjamin,Ueli Schibler +5 more
TL;DR: DNA binding of heat-shock factor 1 (HSF1) is found to be highly rhythmic, suggesting a combined role for HSF1 in the mammalian timekeeping and cytoprotection systems and suggesting that the new screening method DDDP can be applied to discover novel transcriptional regulators in various biological systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian timing of metabolism in animal models and humans.
Charna Dibner,Ulrich Schibler +1 more
TL;DR: This work focuses primarily on metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, although circadian misalignments (shiftwork or ‘social jet lag’) have also been associated with the aetiology of human malignancies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian gene expression is resilient to large fluctuations in overall transcription rates
Charna Dibner,Daniel Sage,Michael Unser,Christoph Ruediger Bauer,Thomas d'Eysmond,Thomas d'Eysmond,Felix Naef,Felix Naef,Ueli Schibler +8 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that mammalian circadian oscillators are resilient to large fluctuations in general transcription rates and temperature, and that PER1 has an important function in transcription and temperature compensation.
