A Casz1–NuRD complex regulates temporal identity transitions in neural progenitors

Abstract Neural progenitor cells undergo identity transitions during development to ensure the generation different types of neurons and glia in the correct sequence and proportions. A number of temporal identity factors that control these transitions in progenitor competence have been identified, b...
