Kruppel-like factor 4-dependent Staufen1-mediated mRNA decay regulates cortical neurogenesis
While being known as a transcription factor, Kruppel-like factor 4 (Klf4) may have other molecular functions. This study shows that Klf4 in neural progenitor cells regulate neurogenesis and self-renewal by interacting with RNA-binding protein Staufen1 and RNA helicase Ddx5/17 to control mRNA decay.
