The #histone variant H2A.Z is key to neurodevelopment—but how is it placed at the right #genes? This new study from @gildastef.bsky.social‬ shows how SRCAP ensures proper H2A.Z loading during neuronal differentiation

We show that during neuronal differentiation of N2A, H2A.Z is initially removed but later reincorporated. In SRCAP knockdown cells, this reincorporation is impaired, highlighting SRCAP’s essential role in depositing H2A.Z during neurodevelopment. #SRCAP #Neurodevelopment #FloatingHarborSyndrome
