Abstract:Foxg1masters telencephalic development via a pleiotropic control of its articulation.L1is a large retrotransposon family expressed within CNS and suggested to contribute to its genomic plasticity. Foxg1 represses gene transcription, andL1elements share putative Foxg1 binding motifs, suggesting the former might limit telencephalic expression (and activity) of the latter. We tested such prediction, in vivo as well as in engineered primary neural cultures, by loss- and gain-of-function approaches. We showed thatF… Show more
