Scope and Contents

Contents

The period protein (PER) is an essential component of the circadian clock in Drosophila melanogaster. Although PER-containing pacemaker cells have been previously identified in the brain, the neuronal network that comprises the circadian clock remained unknown. Here it is shown that some PER neurons are also immunostained with an antiserum against...
