OUT NOW our preprint titled “A conserved chronobiological complex times C. elegans development”

What distinguishes the circadian clocks in our bodies (that tell us when to sleep and wake) from clocks that control development? Perhaps not so much: C. elegans LIN-42 and KIN-20 form a stable complex to control developmental tempo just like their orthologues PER and CK1 function in a complex to control the circadian period. Fun in vivo – in vitro collaboration with Ward and Partch labs at UCSC – check out our preprint for the full story.
