BHLHE41
"Basic helix-loop-helix family, member e41", or BHLHE41, is a gene that encodes, as the name implies, a basic helix-loop-helix protein in various tissues of both humans and mice. It also known as DEC2, hDEC2, and SHARP1, and was previously known as "basic helix-loop-helix domain containing, class B, 3", or BHLHB3.
Function
This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the Hairy/Enhancer of Split subfamily of basic helix-loop-helix factors. The encoded protein functions as a transcriptional repressor and as a regulator of molecular clock.
In mice lacking SHARP1 and SHARP2, IGF-2 is elevated and so memory consolidation is enhanced.
Clinical significance
Defects in this gene are associated with the short sleep phenotype . A particular genetic variation in the gene affects sleep duration in humans, and introduction of the human gene into mice also reduces their sleep requirements. This genetic variation was discovered by Ying-Hui Fu's lab.

Virginity
by: TG4I know you want it
You wanna hit it
But you can't have it
Oops, can't touch it
Maybe a kiss on these lips
Holding hands it aint nothing
Nasty is what you call me
We get close but you can't handle it
Cuz I'm not maybe what your looking
Cuz I'm not the average kind of girl
I might let you touch me
I might let you hold me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you tease me
I might let you squeeze me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
Can't imagine what it feels like
My friends say it's alright
But then they go and do it all night
But I prefer the merry life
Patience is what you gotta have
That's what it takes to be my man
I'm not like that bad if you like me
Keep it with you then maybe
I might let you touch me
I might let you hold me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you tease me
I might let you squeeze me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
Baby its not like I dont really like you
You just gotta know
That if your not willing to get with my loving
Than you've gotta go
Baby its not like I dont really like you
You just gotta know
That if your not willing to get with my loving
Than you've gotta go
God D@^^* what part don't you understand

With the everyday scenario
Jeans painted on cleavage showin
Dont mean she easy
Girl you gotta keep your integrity
I wouldn't let him get over on me
Dont fall for the same game
Him callin you boo
Telling you he love you
And everything he gone do
Treat your body like a temple
The best thing ever made
Cuz once you let him hit
Watch how those feelings fade away
You gotta be the best at this game being played
Dont give it up know
Some things are better off saved
I might let you touch me
I might let you hold me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you tease me
I might let you squeeze me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you touch me
I might let you hold me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you tease me
I might let you squeeze me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you touch me
I might let you hold me
I might even let you kiss me
But you can not take my virginity
I might let you tease me
I might let you squeeze me
I might even let you kiss me
