Neuron driven physiological activities such as sleep, feeding, energy consumption are controlled by light sensitive central clock genes in the pacemaker neurons in the brain. Multiple epigenetic events including post-transcriptional regulation, splicing, polyadenylation, mature mRNA editing and stability of translation products are the main vibrators for circadian oscillation with the instructive role of various sets of non-coding small regulatory RNA. Here, we sum up the basic role of small regulatory RNA and their epigenetic circuits in brain clock activity.
