hDEC2 , the super-sleeper mutation


Imagine if you could feel totally energised on just 4 hours of sleep each night. Some people are naturally that way.


These people are called 'short-sleepers', and scientists are only recently uncovering what exactly predisposes them to be this way.


For the most part, researchers believe that the capabilities areconnected to specific genetic mutations, and have publicly identified one on the hDEC2 gene.


That means that short-sleeping habits can run in the family, and scientists hope to one day learn how to harness this ability so it can be used to help people switch up their sleeping routines.

A mutation in the gene DEC2 allows for some people to be natural short sleepers. It's every over-achiever's dream: a gene mutation that allows them to function normally with just four to six hours of sleep a night instead of the normal eight.
