Taghert’s work on DIMM addresses the genetic programs underlying neuron diversification. Through a developmental studies approach, his work explores how peptidergic neurons in Drosophila use transcriptional control mechanisms to acquire properties like the selection of a unique neuropeptide phenotype. The bHLH protein DIMM is an example of a transcriptional control mechanism that operates in neurosecretory neurons and is responsible for the cells’ ability to accumulate, process, and package large amounts of secretory peptides.

Taghert’s work involves employing the GAL4 activation and GAL80 inhibition of PDF to study PDF’s necessity as a circadian pacemaker. Experiments with the LNvs found that ablation of PDF via GAL80 inhibition only affected some aspects of behavioral rhythms, suggesting the presence of other regulators controlling circadian behavior. To further examine the peptidergic pathways regulating PDF, Taghert and his group discovered the PDF receptor (PDFR), a class B1 G protein coupled receptor. Null mutations of PDFR suggests that it is also required for circadian rhythms in Drosophila melanogaster.
