Safb1 regulates cell fate determination in adult neural stem cells by enhancing Drosha cleavage of NFIB mRNA
Summary During brain homeostasis, stem cell fate determination is crucial to guarantee function, adaptation and regeneration while preventing neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment. How neural stem cells (NSCs) are instructed to generate neurons or glia is not well understood. Here we addressed how fate is resolved in multipotent adult hippocampal NSCs, and identify Scaffold Attachment Factor B1 (Safb1) as a determinant of neuron production by blocking glial commitment. Safb1 is sufficient to block oligodendrocytic differentiation of NSCs by preventing expression of the transcription factor NFIB at the post-transcriptional level. Detailed interrogation of the Drosha interactome and functional validation revealed that Safb1 enhances NFIB mRNA cleavage in a Drosha-dependent fashion. Thus, our study provides a cellular mechanism for selective NSC fate regulation by post-transcriptional destabilization of mRNAs. Given the importance of NSC maintenance and fate determination in the adult brain, our findings have major implications for cell-specific gene expression, brain disease and aging..
