Zinc finger and BTB domain containing 16 (ZBTB16) play the roles in the neural progenitor
cell proliferation and neuronal differentiation during development, however, how the function …

Dendritic spine morphology and dendritic arborization are key determinants of neuronal
connectivity and play critical roles in learning, memory and behavior function. Recently …

Exploring genes and pathways underlying intellectual disability (ID) provides insight into
brain development and function, clarifying the complex puzzle of how cognition develops. As …

Hippocampus-associated genes that orchestrate the formation of the compact stratum
pyramidale are largely unknown. The BTB (broad complex, tramtrack, bric-a-brac)-zinc …

The Zbtb33 gene encodes the Kaiso protein—a bimodal transcriptional repressor. Here, the
effects of Zbtb33 gene disruption on the brain and behaviour of the Kaiso-deficient (KO) and …

BRD7 is a bromodomain-containing protein (BCP), and recent evidence implicates the role
of BCPs in the initiation and development of neurodevelopmental disorders. However, few …

Background Nonsense mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is an RNA surveillance mechanism
that controls RNA stability and ensures the speedy degradation of erroneous and …

ZNF804a was identified by a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in which a single
nucleotide polymorphism (SNP rs1344706) in ZNF804a reached genome-wide statistical …

Multipotent neural precursor cells (NPCs) generate astrocytes at late stages of mammalian
neocortical development. Many signalling pathways that regulate astrocytogenesis directly …

Key points• Zinc finger and BTB domain‐containing protein 20 (Zbtb20) plays a critical role
