| Research Abstract |
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (Fgfr3) is one of the essential molecules during corticogenesis that regulates proliferation and differentiation of neuronal stem cells in mammalian brain. However, its regulatory mechanism is still largely unknown. Here we found that neuronal stem cell-specific expression of Fgr3 is achieved by (1) Fgfr3 promoter activity, and (2) utilizing mutually exclusive alternative splicing regulation of exon 9 and 10. From these analyses in alternative splicing regulators of Fgfr3, we deciphered the mechanism of mammalian corticogenesis.
