Summary
This paper investigates the role of deubiquitinase USP2 in modulating behavior and circadian light response in mice, finding that USP2 substantially regulates animal behavior and affects circadian behaviors.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how the absence of USP2 in mice leads to a reduction in recognition memory.
Alertness and performance: The paper explores how USP2 affects motor coordination in mice, with mice lacking USP2 showing reduced motor coordination.
Mood regulation: The paper finds that mice lacking USP2 show reduced anxiety-like behaviors, indicating a role for USP2 in mood regulation.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper investigates how USP2 modulates the light response of the circadian clock in mice, affecting early-night entrainment and entrainment to a light cue.
