Turning off Fubp1 disrupts daily cycles of Per1 protein by lowering Syncrip levels

Updated

Abstract

The phasic profile of Per1 protein was clearly disrupted in CRISPR/Cas-mediated Fubp1-deficient cells.

  • Core clock gene Period 1 (Per1) is essential for maintaining circadian rhythm duration in peripheral clocks.
  • Alterations in Per1 expression and oscillation patterns are linked to cancer development and circadian rhythm abnormalities.
  • Fubp1 enhances the mRNA and protein levels of Syncrip, which regulates Per1 protein oscillation.
  • Fubp1 does not exhibit rhythmic expression but plays a role in the molecular clock system.
  • Fubp1 is also associated with various physiological functions, including cell-cycle regulation and metabolic control.
