Expression of FoxP2 in the Basal Ganglia Regulates Vocal Motor Sequences in the Adult Songbird
2020-03-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Disruption of the transcription factor FoxP2, which is enriched in the basal ganglia, impair vocal development in humans and songbirds. The basal ganglia are essential for the selection and sequencing of motor actions, but the circuit mechanisms governing accurate sequencing of learned vocalizations are unknown. Here, we show expression of FoxP2 in the basal ganglia is vital for the fluent initia...
