The microcephaly gene Donson is essential for progenitors of cortical glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons.

Biallelic mutations in DONSON, an essential gene encoding for a replication fork protection factor, were linked to skeletal abnormalities and microcephaly. To better understand DONSON function in corticogenesis, we characterized Donson expression and consequences of conditional Donson deletion in th...
