Understanding the mechanisms that specify neuronal subtypes is important to unravel the complex mechanisms of neuronal circuit assembly. Here we have identified a novel role for the transcription factor AP2 in progenitor and neuronal subtype specification in the cerebral cortex. Conditional deletion of AP2 causes misspecification of basal progenitors starting at
AP2gamma regulates basal progenitor fate in a region- and layer-specific manner in the developing cortex.
