Tfap2bK144/+ and Tfap2bK144/K144 showed normal protein expression levels. Tfap2b+/- female mice showed increased wakefulness time and decreased nonrapid eye movement sleep (NREMS) time. By contrast, Tfap2bK145/+ female mice showed an apparently normal amount of sleep but instead exhibited fragmented NREMS, whereas Tfap2bK144/+ male mice showed reduced NREMS time specifically in the dark phase. Finally, in the adult brain, Tfap2b-LacZ expression was detected in the superior colliculus, locus coeruleus, cerebellum, and the nucleus of solitary tract. These findings provide direct evidence that TFAP2B influences NREMS amounts in mice and also show that different mutations in Tfap2b can lead to diverse effects on sleep architecture.The polarized partitioning of proteins in cells underlies asymmetric cell division, which is an important driver of development and cellular diversity. The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae divides asymmetrically, like many other cells, to generate two distinct progeny cells. A well-known example of an asymmetric protein is the transcription factor Ace2, which localizes specifically to the daughter nucleus, where it drives a daughter-specific transcriptional network. We screened a collection of essential genes to analyze the effects of core cellular processes in asymmetric cell division based on Ace2 localization. This screen identified mutations that affect progression through the cell cycle, suggesting that cell cycle delay is sufficient to disrupt Ace2 asymmetry. To test this model, we blocked cells from progressing through mitosis and found that prolonged metaphase delay is sufficient to disrupt Ace2 asymmetry after release, and that Ace2 asymmetry is restored after cytokinesis. We also demonstrate that members of th
