Control of the daily biological clock by RNA processing in Arabidopsis plants

Abstract

More than half of the intron-split genes in Arabidopsis are alternatively spliced.

  • Alternative splicing is important for regulating gene functions.
  • It enhances the diversity of proteins produced in plants.
  • A significant number of these alternatively spliced genes are involved in various biological processes, including the circadian clock.
  • The review emphasizes the role of alternative splicing specifically in the regulation of the circadian clock.
