Fig. 5. MTG8 interacts with LHX6 to promote SST-NPY fate.

Fig. 5

a Domain structure of LHX6 and the truncated LHX6 protein used in this study, LHX6ΔLIM1/2, which lacks both LIM domains. Immunoprecipitation of WT or truncated LHX6 results in co-IP of MTG8 in transient transfection assays in Cos cells. Uncropped blots are provided as a Source Data file. b Domain structure of LDB1 and the truncated LDB1 protein used in this study, LDB1ΔLID, which lacks the LIM-interaction domain. Immunoprecipitation of WT or truncated LDB1 does not result in co-IP of MTG8 in transient transfection assays in Cos cells. Uncropped blots are provided as a Source Data file. c Experimental scheme for ectopic expression of LHX6-GFP, or MTG8-tdTOM, or both, in the embryonic cortex via whole head electroporation at E14.5-E15.5, followed by slice culture of coronal sections from electroporated brains. d Expression of Sst, and Npy in the developing neocortex upon ectopic expression of MTG8 and/or LHX6. Npy is upregulated only in the presence of both, MTG8 and LHX6 (arrows). Scale bar 400 μm.
