The histone demethylase Kdm6b regulates subtype diversification of mouse spinal motor neurons during development

Neural cell type diversification during development is a complex and highly regulated process. Here, the authors show that the histone H3-lysine 27 demethylase Kdm6b promotes and inhibits the generation of specific motor neuron subtypes during the development of the mouse spinal cord.
