Figure 4. Targeted expression of truncated forms of Ap and Chi RNAi in PDF neurons promotes arousal.

Figure 4

Sleep/wake parameters were analyzed using the data averaged over 3 days of LD. Error bars show S.E.M. in each figure. Bars with the same letter indicate values that are not significantly different (P > 0.05). (a) Schematic representation of wild-type and truncated forms of AP. (b and c) Possible model of dysfunction of Ap/Chi through expression of ApΔLIM and ApΔHD. Sleep/wake parameters obtained using (df) Pdf-GAL4/UAS-apΔHD flies, (gi) Pdf-GAL4/UAS-apΔLIM flies, and (jl) Pdf-GAL4/UAS-Chi RNAi flies. (d,g and j) Daily sleep patterns of control and experimental flies. (e,h and k) Total sleep amount during day and night. (f, i and l) Waking times in the morning (ZT0–4), midday (ZT4–8), and evening (ZT8–12).
