Med12 and Med13 prevent tumorigenic dedifferentiation of intermediate neural progenitors and premature loss of neural stem cells

Rui Chen, Xiaosu Li, Wenwen Lu, Yanjun Hou, Sijun Zhu

This study shows Med12 and Med13 prevent dedifferentiation of intermediate neural progenitors and loss of neural stem cells in Drosophila by regulating gene expression through interactions with different mediator complex subsets.

Spen and Nito prevent dedifferentiation of progenitors by translationally repressing E(Spl)mγ

Xiaosu Li, Wenwen Lu, Marisa Connell, Xiaobing Deng, Sijun Zhu

The paper shows that Spen and Nito repress E(Spl)mγ translation in stem cells to prevent progeny dedifferentiation during asymmetric division.
