In mammals, mCRY proteins are essential and are major negative elements in circadian feedback loops. In this study, robust circadian clock oscillation was present even under conditions with constitutive over-expression of mCry1 in rat-1 cells. Rat-1 cells were produced to stably express mPer2 promoter-driven luciferase reporter, in which mCry1 was overexpressed under a tetracycline-dependent gene expression (Tet-On) system. Using these cells, we show that circadian clock oscillations in rat-1 fibroblasts persist when the mCRY1 protein constitutively accumulates in the nuclei.
