“…Given that organisms require diverse proteins for time-dependent and region-specific functions and protein degradation rates fluctuate widely, robust cycling behavior in gene expression for these pathways is anticipated to match daily cellular activity variations. 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 The malfunction of this pathway due to deficient Ubiquitin ligase (UbL) expression has been linked to disrupted circadian systems and impaired neuropeptide transport in animal UbL knockout models. 58 , 60 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 Microtubule-based processes, facilitating intracellular protein transport, were found enriched in most of the same brain regions as this protein regulatory pathway.…”
