| text | Biochemical and affinity purification steps performed on mouse ES cells, mouse embryonic fibroblasts and newborn mouse brain extracts identified two distinct BAF complexes governing neuronal differentiation (Olave et al, 2002; Lessard et al, 2007; Staahl et al, 2013). As neuronal progenitors (np) differentiate and exit the mitotic cell cycle, the components of the npBAF complex alter. npBAF-specific subunits ACTL6A, SS18 and DPF2/PHF10 are replaced by neuron-specific subunits ACTL6B, SS18L1 and DPF1 or DPF3 (Olave et al, 2002; Lessard et al, 2007; Staahl et al, 2013; reviewed in Staahl and Crabtree, 2013; Kadoch and Crabtree, 2015; Innis and Cabot, 2020; Cenik and Shilatifard, 2021). PHF10/BAF45A and ACTL6A/BAF53A are required for proliferation of neural stem cells, and extending the expression of these subunits disrupts neuronal differentiation (Lessard et al, 2007). |
