Abstract excerpt
It is by now well known that, at the molecular level, the core of the circadian clock of most living species is a negative feedback loop where some proteins inhibit their own transcription. However, it has recently been shown that post-translational processes, such as phosphorylations, are essential for a correct timing of the clock. Depending on which sites of a circadian protein are phosphorylated, different...
