Developmental Timing in C Developmental Timing in C. elegans Is Regulated by kin-20 and tim-1, Homologs of Core Circadian Clock Genes  Diya Banerjee, Alvin Kwok, Shin-Yi Lin, Frank J. Slack  Developmental Cell  Volume 8, Issue 2, Pages 287-295 (February 2005) DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2004.12.006 Copyright © 2005 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Defects in Development Timing Associated with Knockdown of C. elegans Circadian Gene Homologs (A) Percentage of wIs79 animals on RNAi showing precocious seam cell fusion (precocious defined as ≥3 contiguous seam cells fused in early L4). RNAi of lin-42 (n = 34), kin-20 (n = 56), and tim-1 (n = 42) results in precocious terminal differentiation in the L4, as compared to wild-type animals (n = 85). (B) Average numbers of seam cell nuclei over time. Animals on kin-20(RNAi) appear to exit from the cell cycle during the early L4 stage compared to animals on mock RNAi (n = 30–50 animals). For (A) and (B), error bars represent standard deviation. (C–F) (C and D) wIs79 early L4-stage animals on mock RNAi showing unfused seam cells (white arrowheads indicate cell junctions). (E and F) wIs79 early L4-stage animals on kin-20(RNAi) showing precocious seam cell fusion. (C–F) In all cases, the anterior of the animal is oriented toward the left, dorsal is oriented toward the top, and magnification is at 630× (the white arrow indicates the distal tip of the gonad arm). (G) A model of the cell lineage defects (represented by the epidermal V cell lineage) as deduced from anatomical observations of wild-type animals undergoing RNAi of lin-42, kin-20, or tim-1. The vertical axis represents time, and the black circles represent exit from the cell cycle. The asterisk indicates that knockdown of either kin-20 or tim-1 results in precocious seam fusion, but that secretion of alae takes place at the normal time.

Figure 2 Genetic Interactions of kin-20 and tim-1 with Heterochronic Genes (A) Percent survival of let-7(n2853ts) animals on various RNAi. Percent survival is calculated from the number of young-adult animals in a staged population that do not show lethality (n > 200 for each experiment). (B) RNAi of lin-42, kin-20, or tim-1 suppresses the lack of adult alae in let-7(n2853ts) animals (n = 35 in all cases). (C and D) Nomarski images of (C) let-7(n2853ts) adult animals on mock RNAi and (D) kin-20(RNAi), taken at 1000×. In (C), gray arrowheads mark the positions at which alae should be present, while, in (D), white arrowheads indicate alae. The anterior of the animal is oriented toward the left, and dorsal is oriented toward the top. (E and F) (E) lin-41(ma104) animals and (F) hbl-1(mg285) animals on lin-42, kin-20, or tim-1 RNAi showing enhancement of the precocious alae phenotype associated with each mutation (n = 35 in all cases). (G) lin-42(n1089);wIs79 animals on lin-42, kin-20, or tim-1 RNAi showing enhancement of the precocious seam cell fusion phenotype associated with n1089 mutation (n = 30 in all cases). For (B), (E) and (F), partial alae are defined as a continuous stretch of alae that covers at least one fourth of the animal’s body length, and complete alae are defined as continuous alae that run the full body length. For (A), (B), (E), (F), and (G), error bars represent standard deviation. Developmental Cell 2005 8, 287-295DOI: (10.1016/j.devcel.2004.12.006) Copyright © 2005 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 3 KIN-20 Is the Closest C. elegans Homolog to Drosophila DOUBLETIME (A) Phylogenetic tree of casein kinase I-predicted protein sequences from the following metazoans: Hs, Homo sapiens; Ma, Mesocricetus auratus; Ce, Caenorhabditis elegans; Dm, Drosophila melanogaster. (B) Schematic of kin-20 isoforms. Solid bars represent translated sequences and hatched bars represent untraslated sequences. (C) mRNA expression profiles of kin-20. A developmental Northern blot with total RNA from each developmental stage (E, embryos; L1–L4, larval stages 1–4; YA, young adult) was probed with a kin-20 fragment. Three signals were detected at all developmental stages (kin-20C at ∼4.0 kb, kin-20A at ∼2.5 kb, and kin-20B at ∼1.8 kb). (D) Schematic of the kin-20::gfp translational fusion construct for kin-20A and kin-20C isoforms. The C-terminal GFP fusion consists of kin-20-translated exons 3–7 under control of 3 kb of kin-20 native promoter, and with the unc-54 3′UTR. (E and F) KIN-20::GFP is expressed in seam cells and the hermaphrodite-specific neuron (HSN). (E) KIN-20::GFP localization to dividing seam cell pairs (indicated by small white arrowheads) in an L4-stage animal (magnification of 630×). (F) KIN-20::GFP localization to the HSN (indicated by the large white arrowhead) in a late L4-stage animal (magnification of 1000×). In (E) and (F), anterior is oriented toward the left, and dorsal is oriented toward the top. Developmental Cell 2005 8, 287-295DOI: (10.1016/j.devcel.2004.12.006) Copyright © 2005 Elsevier Inc.
