Study provides new knowledge on the influence of membrane proteins on plant growth

Ubiquitin is a tiny regulatory protein that can be present in most eukaryotic cells. It is important for changing the function of other proteins, and it is especially important for protein breakdown and localization inside the cell. Ubiquitin regulates these actions through ubiquitination (attaching to and detaching from a target protein).

Maternal rhythms help to develop the suprachiasmatic nuclei’s “master clock”

According to a new study published May 24th, 2022, in the open-access journal PLOS Biology by Alena Sumová and coworkers of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague, genes within the fetus’s developing clock respond to rhythmic behavior in the mother during fetal development, first before the biological clock starts ticking on its own.
