AbstractAutism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is the most prevalent neurodevelopmental disorder in the United States and often co-presents with sleep problems. Sleep problems in ASD predict the severity of ASD core diagnostic symptoms and have a considerable impact on the quality of life of caregivers. Little is known, however, about the underlying molecular mechanisms. We investigated the role of Shank3, a high confidence ASD gene candidate, in sleep architecture and regulation. We show that mice lacking exon 21 of Shank3 have problems falling asleep even when sleepy. Using RNA-seq we show that sleep deprivation increases the differences in gene expression between mutants and wild types, downregulating circadian transcription factors Per3, Dec2, Hlf, Tef, and Reverbα. Shank3 mutants also have trouble regulating wheel-running activity in constant darkness. Overall our study shows that Shank3 is an important modulator of sleep and clock gene expression.

ABSTRACT Transcriptional regulation plays an important role inDrosophila melanogaster circadian rhythms. The period promoter has been well studied, but the timeless promoter has not been analyzed in detail. Mutagenesis of the canonical E box in the timelesspromoter reduces but does not eliminate timeless mRNA cycling or locomotor activity rhythms. This is because there are at least two other cis-acting elements close to the canonical E box, which can also be transactivated by the circadian transcription factor dCLOCK. These E-box-like sequences cooperate with the canonical E-box element to promote high-amplitude transcription, which is necessary for wild-type rhythmicity.
