Protein degradation rate helps explain why humans develop more slowly than mice
Researchers at EMBL analysed the protein degradation rate of around 4,000 genes. Their findings help explain why human embryonic development is slower than mouse embryonic development.

Metabolic activities are not global modulators of developmental tempos
A new study from EMBL Barcelona researchers shows that metabolism is a selective modulator of developmental tempo, contributing to our evolutionary understanding.

Human and mouse cells run at different speeds
The internal clock that governs the development of embryos ticks slower for humans than for mice. Differences in the speed of biochemical reactions underlie the differences between species in the tempo of development.
