Summary |
Intrinsic molecular pathways in the central nervous system dictate neuronal cell fate during development. However, interplay of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) dictating mRNA translation, and their spatiotemporal extracellular regulators in neocortical neural stem cells during neurogenesis are poorly understood. Using an unbiased RNAseq screen of polysomes between early and mid-neurogenesis, we identified functionally related mRNA groups and their isoforms are regulated translationally in prenatal neocortices, including mRNAs encoding RBPs. Here, we show that isoforms of the RBP, Hu antigen D (HuD), regulate the balance of neocortical glutamatergic neurons in an isoform-specific manner during development. HuD3 promoted a Cdp+ intracortically projecting neuronal fate, while HuD4 promoted a Tle4+ subcortically projecting neuronal fate. In early neurogenic radial glia of the neocortex, HuD transcripts were bound and translationally repressed by another RBP, CUG triplet repeat RNA-binding protein 1 (Cugbp1). Cugbp1 knockdown increased the number of Cdp+ intracortically projecting neurons, while having distinct effects on Tle4+ and Ctip2+ subcortically projecting neurons. Neurotrophin-3 promoted HuD3 mRNA translation and Cdp+ fate, which was reversed by Cugbp1. Thus, our findings reveal a novel post-transcriptional molecular pathway in the developing neocortex that regulates the balance of distinct subpopulations of neocortical projection neurons.

Overall design |
Mouse neocortex from E13 and E16 were prepared and loaded onto sucrose density gradients. Fractions representing total cellular RNA, 40-60-80S, and polysome were sequenced using standard Illumina protocols.
