MeCP2 controls neural stem cell fate specification through miR-199a-mediated inhibition of BMP-Smad signaling

Summary: Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurological disorder, with impaired brain development caused by mutations in MECP2; however, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. We know from previous work that MeCP2 facilitates the processing of a specific microRNA, miR-199a, by associating with the...
