| abstractText | The spatio-temporal expression of the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor NSCL-2 was analyzed in the postnatal development of the murine brain by in situ hybridization. We found that NSCL-2 is transiently expressed in the cerebellum. NSCL-2 was found exclusively in the premigratory zone of the external granule layer where postmitotic neurons undergo initial stages of neuronal differentiation. NSCL-2 expression was not detected in mature neurons. This pattern of expression suggests that NSCL-2 is critical for the onset of neuronal differentiation, but not for the maintenance of the differentiated state. |
