The mechanisms by which early spatiotemporal expression patterns of transcription factors such as Pax6 regulate cortical progenitors in a region-specific manner are poorly understood. Pax6 is expressed in a gradient across the developing cortex and is essential for normal corticogenesis. We found that constitutive or conditional loss of Pax6 increases cortical progenitor proliferation by amounts that vary regionally with normal Pax6 levels. We compared the gene expression profiles of equivalent Pax6-expressing progenitors isolated from Pax6+/+ and Pax6−/− cortices and identified many negatively regulated cell-cycle genes, including Cyclins and Cdks. Biochemical assays indicated that Pax6 directly represses Cdk6 expression. Cyclin/Cdk repression inhibits retinoblastoma protein (pRb) phosphorylation, thereby limiting the transcription of genes that directly promote the mechanics of the cell cycle, and we found that Pax6 inhibits pRb phosphorylation and represses genes involved in DNA replication. Our results indicate that Pax6’s modulation of cortical progenitor cell cycles is regional and direct. Pax6 loss increases cortical progenitor proliferation by region-specific amounts The size of this effect correlates directly with normal Pax6 expression levels Expression of many key cell-cycle regulators is increased in the absence of Pax6 Pax6 directly represses Cdk6 expression and controls pRb phosphorylation The transcription factor Pax6 regulates multiple aspects of forebrain development. Mi et al. show that it exerts regional control of cortical cell proliferation. It inhibits cell-cycle gene expression, directly repressing Cdk6, and limits the activity of the pRb-E2F pathway.
