Deskripsi

Striatal projection neurons exist as two distinct classes and are anatomically mixed in the brain. Here, Tinterri and colleagues show the developmental mechanism of this cellular mosaicism that relies on an intrinsic transcription factor for cell type specification and intermixed cellular migration.
