abstract：:A fundamental issue during nervous system development is how individual cells are formed from the undefined precursors. Differentiated neurons and glia, two major cell types mediating neuronal function, are acquired from immature precursors via a series of explicit controls exerted by transcription factors such as pro...

While previous studies suggested that histone genes are inactive postmeiotically, we have shown both by steady-state RNA analysis and nuclear run-off transcription assays that histone 2b (H2b) t...
