Abstract
⺠Circadian core protein BMAL1 is modified with an O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc). ⺠O-GlcNAcylation of BMAL1 stabilizes the protein. ⺠O-GlcNAcylation of BMAL1 enhances its transcriptional activity. ⺠Inhibition of O-GlcNAcylation results in dampened circadian rhythms of clock gene expression.
