PML: a tumor suppressor essential for neocortical development

Schreck is at the Institute for Cell Engineering and the Department of Neuroscience, and Nicholas Gaiano is at the Institute for Cell Engineering and the Departments of Neurology, Neuroscience and Oncology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland 21205, USA. e-mail: kschreck@jhmi.edu or e-mail: gaiano@jhmi.edu.


Brain development requires precise control of progenitor proliferation and differentiation. PML appears to be a crucial regulator of cortical progenitors, limiting proliferation and promoting the generation of committed neuronal precursors.
