basic FUNCTION
| neurogenesis regulator D2, playing a role in neuronal differentiation |
|
transcriptional activity |
|
participating to NEUROD differentiation cascade during first trimester human placental development |
|
essential for amygdala development |
|
possible redundant roles for NEUROD2 and NEUROD4 in pancreatic endocrine differentiation |
|
induces transcription of neuronal genes and ZEB1, which in turn de-represses neuronal differentiation by down-regulating REST, and suppresses competing myogenic fate |
|
regulate cell fate and neurite stratification in the developing retina |
|
NEUROD2 is a key transcription factor that regulates the structural and functional differentiation of mossy fiber (MF) synapses |
|
OLIG2 has the ability to permeate the cell membrane without the addition of a protein transduction domain (PTD), similar to other basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors such as MYOD1 and NEUROD2 |
|
important function for NEUROD2 in balancing synaptic neurotransmission and intrinsic excitability and these processes are coordinated during cortical development |
|
regulates STIM1 expression and store-operated calcium entry in cortical neurons |
|
in newborn neurons, NEUROD2-mediated gene expression promotes differentiation, maturation, and survival |
|
in postmitotic neurons also regulates synapse growth and ion channel expression to control excitability |
|
is necessary to instruct a terminal differentiation program in basket cells that regulates targeted axon growth and inhibitory synapse formation |
|
promotes the postnatal survival of both granule cells and molecular layer interneurons (basket and stellate cells |
