Human-specific <i>ARHGAP11B</i> is necessary and sufficient for human-type basal progenitor levels in primate brain organoids
2020-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Based on studies in various animal models, including developing ferret neocortex (Kalebic et al., 2018), the human-specific gene ARHGAP11B has been implicated in human neocortex expansion. However, the extent of its contribution to this expansion during primate evolution is unknown. Here we addressed this issue by genetic manipulation of ARHGAP11B levels and function in chimpanzee and human cerebral organoids. In...
