Deep-coverage spatiotemporal proteome of the picoeukaryote Ostreococcus tauri reveals differential effects of environmental and endogenous 24-hour rhythms

Abstract

Holly Kay, Ellen Grünewald, et al. provide an in-depth examination of the proteome in the eukaryotic green alga, Ostreococcus tauri, under circadian constant light or cycling diurnal light-dark conditions. They observe that there is little overlap between mRNA and protein expression rhythms, or the diurnal and circadian proteome, suggesting that the cellular spatiotemporal proteome is shaped through rhythmic regulation at multiple stages of transcription and translation.
