MCB 186 CIRCADIAN BIOLOGY Lecture 4 Drugs as probes of mechanism: Phase shifts v.s. effects on period And some basic questions October 12, 2005 J. W. Hastings
2
LIMITS OF ENTRAINMENT HOW do you SPECIFY the LIMITS? ARE there EFFECTS OUTSIDE the LIMITS?
3
Turntable Screening Apparatus: 12 positions for petri dishes or titer plates
4
BACTERIAL COLONIES EXPRESSING BIOLUMINESCENCE Day phase Night phase Code numbers
5
MEASURING ALL OR ONLY SOME CULTURES
6
EFFECT OF NOT MEASURING (- - - -) ON PERIOD
8
CLOCK MUTANTS REVEAL GENES REGULATING CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS Many but not all exhibit rhythms in expression of mRNA and protein Positive elements and negative feedback result in oscillation Not established how other systems are controlled (CCGs)
9
POSTULATED FEEDBACK LOOPS IN REGULATION OF CLOCK GENE EXPRESSION
10
COMMON ELEMENTS IN THE DESIGN OF CORE CIRCADIAN OSCILLATORS DUNLAP, 1999
11

12
Cyanobacterial Clockworks Model -1998 Ishiura et al 1998 Science 281: 1519-1523
13
CCGs in Gonyaulax are CONTROLLED by RNA (translation not transcription) mRNA levels remain constant while protein levels exhibit rhythms Synthesis of many proteins is rhythmic
14

21
MICROARRAY ANALYSIS of EXPRESSION of ~3000 DINOFLAGELLATE GENES at TWO CIRCADIAN TIMES
22
SPECIFIC INHIBITORS can REVEAL PATHWAYS of CELLULAR PROCESSES PROTEIN synthesis-phase shifts-as pulses PROTEIN phosphorylation- period changes-as continuous
23
EFFECT OF ACTINOMYCIN D (RNA synthesis) ON RHYTHM KARAKASHIAN

EFFECT OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS INHIBITORS ON RHYTHM KARAKASHIAN
25
PULSES of ANISOMYCIN (protein synthesis inhibitor) CAUSE PHASE SHIFTS in Gonyaulax

42
PERIOD EFFECTS of PROTEIN PHOSPHATASE INHIBITORS
43
EFFECTS OF OKADAIC ACID AND CALYCULIN ON THE LIGHT PRC
44
EFFECT OF CREATINE (FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES) ON PERIOD
45
PRCs: LIGHT-INDUCED DELAY-PHASE SHIFTS IN an LL BACKGROUND ARE EVOKED BY CREATINE
46
LOSS OF RHYTHMICITY Several conditions, notably bright light and low temperature, lead to the loss of rhythm; has the clock stopped or is it simply not seen? Return to initial conditions results in a reappearance of rhythm at a fixed phase, CT12, independent of when the return occurs
47
EFFECT of WHITE LIGHT INTENSITY on PERIOD and AMPLITUDE in Gonyaulax 680 fc 380 fc 120 fc
48
EFFECT of WHITE LIGHT INTENSITYon PERIOD in Gonyaulax
49
JCCP 1957 Fig 3 After an extended period in bright LL, with no detectable bioluminescence rhythm, transfer to DD initiates a rhythm. The phase is determined by the time of transfer, as if the clock had stopped.
50
RHYTHM in Gonyaulax INITIATED by SHIFT from LL to DD is PHASED STARTING at CT 12
51
ANOTHER EXAMPLE of a CLOCK “STOPPED” in BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT Peterson and Saunders J. Theor Biol 1980 Eclosion rhythm of flesh-fly Sarcophaga argyrostoma. White triangle represents time of light exposure. Each point is the median eclosion time for the culture from the end of the light exposure. Note that the duration between end of light exposure and eclosion is constant (11.5 hrs, dotted line), as if the clock is stopped and restarts when the stimulus ends. Note the slight ~24 hr oscillation around the dotted line.
52
LOSS OF RHYTHMICITY BELOW 12 O C
53
LOW TEMPERATURE for 12 hr “ STOPS” the CLOCK for 12 hr
54
“STOPPED” Gonyaulax CLOCK RESTARTS with PHASE at CT12
55
A SINGLE CLOCK or MANY CLOCKS? Can different rhythms have different periods?
57
