In vivo nuclear capture and molecular profiling identifies Gmeb1 as a transcriptional regulator essential for dopamine neuron function

Despite the known role of midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) signaling in the homeostatic control of mood and motor functions, little is known about how gene expression in these neurons is regulated. Here, authors develop an in vivo nuclear tagging and capture technique for low-input chromatin accessibilit...

Sumario:Despite the known role of midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) signaling in the homeostatic control of mood and motor functions, little is known about how gene expression in these neurons is regulated. Here, authors develop an in vivo nuclear tagging and capture technique for low-input chromatin accessibility and transcriptome profiling of genetically-defined neuron populations to identify Gmeb1 as a novel transcriptional regulator of mDA neurons, whose loss of function impairs motor control in mice.
