HOW DO YOU EXPERIMENTALLY PROBE FOR MECHANISM? ALTER CONDITIONS (temperature, light cycle) ISOLATE MUTANTS (select for what?) APPLY INHIBITORS OR DRUGS (what kinds?)
DROSOPHILA PER CLOCK MUTANTS WILD TYPE ~24 h PER short ~ 18 h PER long ~ 28 h
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A MUTANT? Isolate the gene responsible. How do you map a gene? Clone the gene? How do you find out what the gene does?
