An AP2 transcription factor is required for a sleep-active neuron to induce sleep-like quiescence in C. elegans.

Current biology : CB - 18 Nov 2013

Turek Michal, Lewandrowski Ines, Bringmann Henrik

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Sleep is an essential behavior that is found in all animals that have a nervous system. Neural activity is thought to control sleep, but little is known about the identity and the function of neural circuits underlying sleep. Lethargus is a developmentally regulated period of behavioral quiescence in C. elegans larvae that has sleep-like properties. RESULTS: We studied sleep-like behavior in C....
