Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

dcoL/+ flies have a lengthened circadian period.

In constant darkness, a small percentage of dcoEY02910/dcoL flies are arrhythmic and have a slightly longer period compared to wild type.

dcoL flies have a long locomotion period compared to wild type. The locomotion period length of dcoL flies shows an improvement towards wild-type at higher temperatures, indicating a defect in temperature compensation. The transition point of the phase response curve in dcoL flies is very close to wild type, at about ZT 18.5.

Mutants require a higher dose than wild-type to induce behavioural responses to cocaine exposure and do not show significant sensitization to a second exposure.

Heterozygotes produce locomotor rhythms with an average period of 24.9 hr in DD conditions. Homozygotes produce locomotor rhythms with an average period of 26.8 hr in DD conditions. Flies can be entrained by an LD 12:12 cycle. Mutant phenotype is completely penetrant. The period of the eclosion rhythm is longer than wild type.

Adult-specific expression (using TubGAL80ts) of larkScer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 driven by Scer\GAL4P2.4.Pdf significantly lengthens circadian period in dcoL/+ flies; co-expression of larkdsRNA.Scer\UAS.cSb significantly shortens circadian period.

Expression of one copy of wdbEP3559 under the control of Scer\GAL4tim.PE in a dcoL background lengthens the period of locomotor activity rhythms from 24.7 to 26 hours.
