Central dogma of genetics
Central dogma of genetics
Regulation of an organisms differentiation and responses to the environment are the result of changes in gene expression.
OLD THEORY: Regulation of gene expression is predominantly controlled at the transcription level.
NEW THEORY: Regulation of gene expression is the result of a combination of protein synthesis (transcription/translation) and protein degradation controls.

EXAMPLE Day/night cycle: day light activates gene expression

Light responses ?
Day/night cycle: During night time, light-inducible genes are down-regulated
However, regulatory proteins that promote the light response need to be removed in the dark. Otherwise, they would interfere with the dark response.

Many cases of conditional proteolysis involve secondary modifications of target proteins. For example: phosphorylation/dephosphorylation.
