Scientists have discovered the secret to regulating our internal clock.
They identified that this regulator sits right at the tail end of Casein Kinase 1 delta (CK1δ), a protein which acts as a pace setter for our internal biological clock or the natural 24-hour cycles that control sleep-wake patterns and other daily functions, known as circadian rhythm.
Published in the journal PNAS, their findings could pave the way for new approaches to treating disorders related to our body clock.
CK1δ regulates circadian rhythms by tagging other proteins involved in our biological clock to fine-tune the timing of these rhythms....
