The postnatal neurodevelopmental disorder Rett syndrome (RTT) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding Methyl-CpG-binding Protein 2 (MeCP2). Despite decades of research, it remains unclear how MeCP2 actually regulates transcription or why RTT features appear only 6-18 months after birth. We exami...

Although expansion of a polyglutamine tract in ATAXIN1 (ATXN1) causes Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1, the functions of wild-type ATXN1 and ATAXIN1-Like (ATXN1L) remain poorly understood. To gain insight into the function of these proteins, we generated and characterized Atxn1L-/- and Atxn1-/- ; Atxn1...

Analysis of cerebella from Capicua (Cic) mutant mice and wild-type controls at 28 days of age (P28). Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by expansion of a translated CAG repeat in Ataxin-1 (ATXN1). The transcriptional repressor Cic binds directly to Atxn1...

CIC is a HMG box-containing transcriptional repressor evolutionarily conserved from C. elegans to human. It's known to associate with various types of cancer but physiological function of CIC remain largely unknown. In this study, we characterized Cic hypomorphic (Cic-L-/-) mice and identified criti...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
A relatively small number of proneural transcription factors specify a multitude of neural progenitor populations in the developing mammalian brain. Despite their importance, little is known about their targets, cellular processes they regulate, or what genomic sites they occupy in vivo. We used an ...
