Aberrant cortical development is driven by impaired cell cycle and translational control in a DDX3X syndrome model

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the RNA helicase, DDX3X , are a leading cause of Intellectual Disability and present as DDX3X syndrome, a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with cortical malformations and autism. Yet, the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which DDX3X controls cortical development are largely unknown. Here, using a mouse model of Ddx3x loss-of-function we demonstrate that DDX3X directs translational and cell...
