Reducing the mystery of neuronal differentiation

Abstract

In the developing nervous system, neural progenitors exit the cell cycle and differentiate on a precise schedule, yet the mechanisms driving this process remain poorly defined. Yan et al. (2009) now identify a thiol-redox reaction mediated by the membrane protein GDE2 and the peroxiredoxin protein Prdx1 that promotes neurogenesis.
