Journal ArticleDOI

Positional cloning of the mouse circadian clock gene.

TL;DR: CLOCK represents the second example of a PAS domain-containing clock protein (besides Drosophila PERIOD), which suggests that this motif may define an evolutionarily conserved feature of the circadian clock mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mammalian circadian biology: elucidating genome-wide levels of temporal organization.

TL;DR: The importance of maintaining the internal temporal homeostasis conferred by the circadian system is revealed by animal models in which mutations in genes coding for core components of the clock result in disease, including cancer and disturbances to the sleep/wake cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Positional Syntenic Cloning and Functional Characterization of the Mammalian Circadian Mutation tau

TL;DR: The tau mutation is a semidominant autosomal allele that dramatically shortens period length of circadian rhythms in Syrian hamsters and the mechanism by which the mutation leads to the observed aberrant circadian phenotype in mutant animals is proposed.
