Summary
This paper discusses the role of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP2 in circadian rhythms and behavior, finding that mice lacking USP2 have alterations in entrainment to an environmental light/dark cycle and in light responses by the suprachiasmatic nucleus, as well as behavioral deficits.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP2 in the brain, which is linked to cognitive function and memory.
Alertness and performance: The paper discusses the role of USP2 in circadian rhythms, which are linked to alertness and performance.
Psychiatric Disorders: The paper discusses the role of USP2 in the brain and behavior, which is linked to psychiatric disorders.
Hormone regulation: The paper discusses the role of USP2 in the circadian clock and its response to light cues, which is linked to hormone regulation.
