<▼1><P>Transcriptional/translational feedback loops drive daily cycles of expression in clock genes and clock-controlled genes, which ultimately underlie many of the overt circadian rhythms manifested by organisms. Moreover, phosphorylation of clock proteins plays crucial roles in the temporal regulation of clock protein activity, stability and subcellular localization. dCLOCK (dCLK), the master transcription factor driving cyclical gene expression and the rate-limiting component in the <I>Drosophila</I> circadian clock, undergoes daily changes in phosphorylation. However, the physiological role of dCLK phosphorylation is not clear. Using a <I>Drosophila</I> tissue culture system, we identified multiple phosphorylation sites on dCLK. Expression of a mutated version of dCLK where all the mapped phospho-sites were switched to alanine (dCLK-15A) rescues the arrythmicity of <I>Clk</I><SUP>out</SUP> flies, yet with an approximately 1.5 hr shorter period. The dCLK-15A protein attains substantially higher levels in flies compared to the control situation, and also appears to have enhanced transcriptional activity, consistent with the observed higher peak values and amplitudes in the mRNA rhythms of several core clock genes. Surprisingly, the clock-controlled daily activity rhythm in dCLK-15A expressing flies does not synchronize properly to daily temperature cycles, although there is no defect in aligning to light/dark cycles. Our findings suggest a novel role for clock protein phosphorylation in governing the relative strengths of entraining modalities by adjusting the dynamics of circadian gene expression.</P></▼1><▼2><P><B>Author Summary</B></P><P>Circadian clocks are synchronized to local time by daily cycles in light-dark and temperature. Although light is generally thought to be the most dominant entraining cue in nature, daily cycles in temperature are sufficient to synchronize clocks in a large range of organisms. In <I>Drosophila</I>, dCLOCK is a master circadian transcription factor that drives cyclical gene expression and is likely the rate-limiting component in the transcriptional/translational feedback loops that underlie the timekeeping mechanism. dCLOCK undergoes temporal changes in phosphorylation throughout a day, which is also observed for mammalian CLOCK. However, the role of CLOCK phosphorylation at the organismal level is still unclear. Using mass-spectrometry, we identified more than a dozen phosphorylation sites on dCLOCK. Blocking global phosphorylation of dCLOCK by mutating phospho-acceptor sites to alanine increases its abundance and transcriptional activity, leading to higher peak values and amplitudes in the mRNA rhythms of core clock genes, which likely explains the accelerated clock speed. Surprisingly, the clock-controlled daily activity rhythm fails to maintain synchrony with daily temperature cycles, although there is no observable defect in aligning to light/dark cycles. Our findings suggest a novel role for clock protein phosphorylation in governing the effective strengths of entraining modalities by adjusting clock amplitude.</P></▼2>

<P>The daily timing of when PERIOD (PER) proteins translocate from the cytoplasm to the nucleus is a critical step in clock mechanisms underpinning circadian rhythms in animals. Numerous lines of evidence indicate that phosphorylation plays a prominent role in regulating various aspects of PER function and metabolism, including changes in its daily stability and subcellular distribution. In this report, we show that phosphorylation of serine 661 (Ser661) by a proline-directed kinase(s) is a key phospho-signal on the Drosophila PER protein (dPER) that regulates the timing of its nuclear accumulation. Mutations that block phosphorylation at Ser661 do not affect dPER stability but delay its nuclear entry in key pacemaker neurons, yielding longer behavioral rhythms. Intriguingly, abolishing phosphorylation at Ser661 also attenuates the extent of dPER hyperphosphorylation in vivo, suggesting the phosphorylated state of Ser661 regulates phosphorylation at other sites on dPER. Indeed, we identify Ser657 as a site that is phosphorylated by the glycogen synthase kinase GSK-3관 (SHAGGY; SGG) in a manner dependent on priming at Ser661. Although not as dramatic as mutating Ser661, mutations that abolish phosphorylation at Ser657 also lead to longer behavioral periods, suggesting that a multi-kinase hierarchical phosphorylation module regulates the timing of dPER nuclear entry. Together with evidence in mammalian systems, our findings implicate proline-directed kinases in clock mechanisms and suggest that PER proteins are key downstream targets of lithium therapy, a potent inhibitor of GSK-3관 used to treat manic depression, a disorder associated with clock malfunction in humans.</P>
