How circadian clock of cyanobacteria reacts to cold - Université Grenoble Alpes

Cyanobacteria have an internal biological clock that rhythmizes their activities over a cycle of about 24 hours. These micro-organisms are able to anticipate day/night cycles thanks to this finely regulated mechanism. A study recently published in Scientific Reports is interested in how this clock reacts when the temperature falls below 25°C, an important threshold for their physiology. This research results from a collaboration between the Inte…
