Examining Sleep Signals at the Cradle of Life: Can phylogenomic analysis of the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA) reveal the fundamental role of sleep?

2025-03-23

Abstract excerpt

In common with most physiological activities, sleep is a highly evolutionarily conserved function. Nevertheless, the purpose of sleep remains inadequately investigated. One possible cause of this deficiency is the limitations of the traditional methods used for examining sleep. Up to this time, the mainstay tool used to look at the evolutionary basis of sleep has been phylogenetic analysis. This approach has provi...
