What is COUP-TFI about?

This document summarizes research on how the transcription factor COUP-TFI controls the differentiation of corticospinal motor neurons (CSMN) in a temporally and spatially specific manner during cortical development. The researchers found that loss of COUP-TFI function in somatosensory cortex causes premature generation of CSMN features and projections normally only found in motor cortex. This results in impaired motor function in adult mice. COUP-TFI is therefore critical for restricting CSMN differentiati
