FOXG1 associates with RNA

Derailed gene expression programs within the developing nervous system, encompassing both transcriptional and posttranscriptional processes, are a frequent cause of diverse neurodevelopmental diseases. One of those debilitating diseases, the FOXG1-syndrome, lacks full understanding of the mechanistic role of its eponymous gene product, FOXG1. While it is known that FOXG1 acts in part at the chromatin by binding to regulative regions, it is unclear what factors control its presence at specific sites. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in site-directed transcription factor binding, but their potential role in FOXG1-syndrome has not been described. This data set is based on sequencing of co-immunoprecipitated RNA and it shows that FOXG1 associates with different RNAs. Overall design: FOXG-RIPseq of P0 mouse brain
