PDF Cells Are a GABA-Responsive Wake-Promoting Component of the Drosophila Sleep Circuit

TL;DR: These features of the Drosophila sleep circuit, GABAergic control of onset and maintenance as well as peptidergic control of arousal, support the idea that features of sleep-circuit architecture aswell as the mechanisms governing the behavioral transitions between sleep and wake are conserved between mammals and insects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drosophila Ionotropic Receptor 25a mediates circadian clock resetting by temperature.

TL;DR: It is shown that Drosophila Ionotropic Receptor 25a (IR25a) is required for behavioural synchronization to low-amplitude temperature cycles, and it is proposed that IR25a is part of an input pathway to the circadian clock that detects small temperature differences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of the Ca2+/CaM-Responsive Pool of CaMKII by Scaffold-Dependent Autophosphorylation

TL;DR: Cmg, the Drosophila homolog of CASK/Lin-2, associates in an ATP-regulated manner with CaMKII to catalyze formation of a pool of calcium-insensitive CaMK II, which provides a mechanism by which the active postsynaptic pool of Ca MKII can be controlled locally to differentiate active and inactive synapses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The eag potassium channel binds and locally activates calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II.

TL;DR: Activity-dependent binding to this potassium channel substrate allows CaMKII to remain locally active even when Ca2+ levels have dropped, providing a novel mechanism by which CaMK II can regulate excitability locally over long time scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Neural Network Underlying Circadian Entrainment and Photoperiodic Adjustment of Sleep and Activity in Drosophila.

TL;DR: The results establish that input from the HB eyelets differentially impacts the physiology of neuronal subgroups, and provide a mechanistic model of light transduction and integration into the circadian system, identifying new and unexpected network motifs within the circadian clock neuron network.
