We are excited to return to Amelia Island, the site of SRBR for so many years early after its founding . SRBR was established 30 years ago, assembled by a group of visionaries whose commitment to research, education, and scientific exchange laid the foundation for SRBR to become a leading voice in propelling the biological rhythms field into the forefront of life science and medicine . To further this remarkable progress, SRBR 2018 promises to be an exceptional forum for hearing the latest cutting-edge research, reengaging with colleagues from years past, and exchanging ideas that will shape the future of the field with a talented and diverse group of chronobiologists from around the globe . Between scientific sessions be sure to take advantage of the hiking trails, golf courses, swimming pools, tennis courts, gym equipment and other amenities at Omni Amelia Island Plantation Resort, as well as nearby beaches and beautiful Amelia Island . All the scientific discourse, personal interactions and leisure activities that we will soon experience would not be possible without many people working behind the scenes who helped organize this meeting . I wish to sincerely thank the SRBR 2018 Program Chair, Horacio de la Iglesia, and the Program Committee for assembling a wide-ranging and exciting scientific program for us to enjoy, our Professional Development Committee Chair, Ilia Karatsoreos, the Professional Development Committee, and the Junior Faculty Workshop Chair, Jennifer Evans, for kicking off the meeting with terrific educational and career development events, Laura Laughlin and the Parthenon Management Group team for their meticulous planning to keep this meeting running smoothly, and our Fundraising Chair, Nico Cermakian, who raised a record level of support from many generous government, corporate and individual sponsors . In addition to planning SRBR 2018, your SRBR Board of Directors made quiet progress on multiple fronts including initiating a Public Relations Committee that is striving to improve the broad visibility of SRBR as the expert on circadian rhythms, increasing our advocacy for circadian biology and sleep to governmental and private funding institutes, and continuing with efforts to honor excellence of our members with Directors’ Awards and other travel awards including those specifically targeted to enhance diversity at our meeting . I am forever grateful for the time and hard work that all SRBR committees devoted to strengthening our Society and advancing the biological rhythms field . Finally, I want to thank all of you for being here and sharing your insights, energy and passion for biological rhythms – which is really what makes this meeting such a success . These are exciting times in the biological rhythms field, and I hope you will take full advantage of the opportunities that await you at SRBR 2018 . Best wishes for a great meeting!

    Faculty Mentor List Basic Science faculty mentors 1. Joseph Takahashi, Ph.D. Professor and Chair, Department of Neuroscience [email protected] Research Statement: The long-term goals of the Takahashi laboratory are to understand the molecular and genetic basis of circadian rhythms in mammals and to utilize forward genetic approaches in the mouse as a tool for gene discovery for complex behavior. We have focused our attention in three areas: 1) identification of circadian clock genes and assignment of their function in the molecular mechanism of the circadian pacemaker; 2) analysis of central and peripheral circadian oscillators using real-time circadian reporters; and 3) identification of genes defined by mutations isolated in the large-scale mutagenesis screens we have conducted on neural and behavioral phenotypes including psychostimulant responses and contextual and cue dependent fear conditioning. Recently, we have focused on the structural biology of circadian clock proteins and on genomewide analysis of transcription factor binding and gene expression using next generation sequencing methods. A comprehensive global analysis of circadian transcription factor binding in the mouse liver has been completed in which all core components of the clock gene pathway have been interrogated. In addition, we have also analyzed the genome-wide regulation of nascent transcription, RNA polymerase II occupancy and epigenomic regulation of chromatin by the circadian clock. We have recently identified genes involved in cocaine responsiveness using forward genetic approaches. My laboratory has demonstrated a successful record of research productivity and training in circadian biology, mammalian genetics, genomics and molecular biology. 1.

  • An Evolutionary Hotspot Defines Functional Differences Between
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-03503-6 OPEN An evolutionary hotspot defines functional differences between CRYPTOCHROMES Clark Rosensweig1,6, Kimberly A. Reynolds2,3, Peng Gao1, Isara Laothamatas1, Yongli Shan1, Rama Ranganathan2,3,4,7, Joseph S. Takahashi 1,5 & Carla B. Green1 Mammalian circadian clocks are driven by a transcription/translation feedback loop com- posed of positive regulators (CLOCK/BMAL1) and repressors (CRYPTOCHROME 1/2 1234567890():,; (CRY1/2) and PER1/2). To understand the structural principles of regulation, we used evo- lutionary sequence analysis to identify co-evolving residues within the CRY/PHL protein family. Here we report the identification of an ancestral secondary cofactor-binding pocket as an interface in repressive CRYs, mediating regulation through direct interaction with CLOCK and BMAL1. Mutations weakening binding between CLOCK/BMAL1 and CRY1 lead to acceleration of the clock, suggesting that subtle sequence divergences at this site can modulate clock function. Divergence between CRY1 and CRY2 at this site results in distinct periodic output. Weaker interactions between CRY2 and CLOCK/BMAL1 at this pocket are strengthened by co-expression of PER2, suggesting that PER expression limits the length of the repressive phase in CRY2-driven rhythms. Overall, this work provides a model for the mechanism and evolutionary variation of clock regulatory mechanisms. 1 Department of Neuroscience, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75390, USA. 2 Department of Biophysics, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 6001 Forest Park Road, Dallas, TX 75390, USA. 3 The Green Center for Systems Biology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 6001 Forest Park Road, Dallas, TX 75390, USA.

  • Circadian Control of Mrna Polyadenylation Dynamics Regulates Rhythmic Protein Expression
    Downloaded from genesdev.cshlp.org on September 29, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Circadian control of mRNA polyadenylation dynamics regulates rhythmic protein expression Shihoko Kojima, Elaine L. Sher-Chen, and Carla B. Green1 Department of Neuroscience, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas, Texas 75390, USA Poly(A) tails are 39 modifications of eukaryotic mRNAs that are important in the control of translation and mRNA stability. We identified hundreds of mouse liver mRNAs that exhibit robust circadian rhythms in the length of their poly(A) tails. Approximately 80% of these are primarily the result of nuclear adenylation coupled with rhythmic transcription. However, unique decay kinetics distinguish these mRNAs from other mRNAs that are transcribed rhythmically but do not exhibit poly(A) tail rhythms. The remaining 20% are uncoupled from transcription and exhibit poly(A) tail rhythms even though the steady-state mRNA levels are not rhythmic. These are under the control of rhythmic cytoplasmic polyadenylation, regulated at least in some cases by cytoplasmic polyadenylation element-binding proteins (CPEBs). Importantly, we found that the rhythmicity in poly(A) tail length is closely correlated with rhythmic protein expression, with a several-hour delay between the time of longest tail and the time of highest protein level. Our study demonstrates that the circadian clock regulates the dynamic polyadenylation status of mRNAs, which can result in rhythmic protein expression independent of the steady-state levels of the message.

Proper oscillation of the clock depends on the complex formation and cyclic turnover of 30 the Period and Cryptochrome proteins, which together inhibit their own transcriptional activator complex, 31 CLOCK-BMAL1. We determined the crystal structure of the CRY-binding domain (CBD) of PER2 in complex 32 with CRY2 at 2.8 Å resolution. PER2-CBD adopts a highly extended conformation, embracing CRY2 with a 33 sinuous binding mode. Its N-terminal end tucks into CRY adjacent to a large pocket critical for CLOCK- 34 BMAL1 binding, while its C-terminal half flanks the CRY2 C-terminal helix and sterically hinders the 35 recognition of CRY2 by the FBXL3 ubiquitin ligase.
