mir-276bKO mutants show decreased morning and evening activity peaks, increased daytime and nighttime sleep time, with increased sleep bout number, and decreased circadian rhythmicity; the increased sleep time is observed in rhythmic flies, only.
Homozygous males and females show a significant decrease in median lifespan compared to controls.
3-5 day old homozygotes show reduced climbing ability in a negative geotaxis assay.
mir-276b[+]/mir-276bKO is a non-enhancer of increased sleep phenotype of mir-276aKO
mir-276aKO, mir-276b[+]/mir-276bKO has abnormal circadian rhythm | adult stage phenotype
mir-276aKO, mir-276bKO double heterozygotes show decreased circadian rhythmicity, compared to controls.
