Deskripsi

Mutations in the ARID1B subunit of the BAF chromatin remodeling complex are associated with the neurodevelopmental Coffin-Siris syndrome. Here the authors reveal that there is a transition from ARID1A-containing complexes to ARID1B during cranial neural crest cell differentiation that is impaired in Coffin-Siris patient-derived cells, which is important for exit from pluripotency.
