Analysis of histone modifications in mouse neocortical neural progenitor-stem cells at various developmental stages

Dynamic changes in histone modifications mediated by Polycomb group proteins can be indicative of the transition of gene repression mode during development. Here, we present methods for the isolation of mouse neocortical neural progenitor-stem cells (NPCs) and their culture, followed by chromatin im...

Sumario:Dynamic changes in histone modifications mediated by Polycomb group proteins can be indicative of the transition of gene repression mode during development. Here, we present methods for the isolation of mouse neocortical neural progenitor-stem cells (NPCs) and their culture, followed by chromatin immunoprecipitation quantitative PCR (ChIP-qPCR) techniques to examine changes in histone H2A ubiquitination patterns at various developmental stages. This protocol can be applied for both in vitro NPCs and NPCs directly isolated from mouse neocortices. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to (Tsuboi et al., 2018).
