Sleep is an ubiquitously conserved animal behavior. Though sleep is controlled by a strict homeostatic manner, the molecular mechanism is not clear. Depositor (Dr. Yanagisawa) and his colleague found a mutant mouse strain with an unusual long sleep time (Sleepy mice) through a phenotype-driven forward-genetics approach (1). Further analysis for Sleepy mice identified a novel sleep control factor Sik3. SIK3 belongs to AMP-activated protein kinase-related kinase family and broadly express in neurons. Sleepy mice have a splicing mutation in Sik3 protein kinase gene (Sik3(SLP)). Knock-in mice with Sik3(SLP) allele show the similar phenotype to original Sleepy mice. The relationship between Sik3 and sleep is a hot topic now. For examples, Sik3(SLP) mice analysis clarified the existence of sleep-need-index phosphoproteins (SNIPPs) (2). Moreover, it was reported that a single amino acid S551 of SIK3 is important for sleep-wake regulation (3). Not only mutant Sik3(SLP) mice (RBRC09910), but also wild-type Sik3 Flag-HA Tag KI mice (RBRC09911) and Sik3(SLP) Flag-HA Tag KI mice (RBRC09912) are available from RIKEN BioResource Research Center. These Flag-HA Tag KI strain are especially useful for protein analysis. |
