The paper identifies P-body sequestration of clock transcripts as a mechanism delaying repressor synthesis, which sets the circadian period in Drosophila.

The paper identifies an intron in the Drosophila timeless gene that acts as an RNA-based timer regulating circadian period length through nuclear retention of mRNA.

This paper describes a one-step CRISPR-based method for endogenous gene tagging in Drosophila melanogaster, enabling efficient screening and characterization of engineered lines without a visible eye marker.

This study shows clock proteins form dynamic nuclear foci that organize clock genes at the nuclear envelope to control circadian rhythms.
