Neural stem cells (NSCs) are critical for brain development and maintenance of neurogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms that regulate NSC proliferation and differentiation remain unclear. Mysm1 is a deubiquitinase and is essential for the self-renewal and differentiation of several stem cells. It is unknown whether Mysm1 plays an important role in NSCs. Here, we found that Mysm1 was expressed in NSCs and its expression was increased with age in mice. Mice with Mysm1 knockdown by crossing Mysm1 floxed mice with Nestin-Cre mice exhibited abnormal brain development with microcephaly. Mysm1 deletion promoted NSC proliferation and apoptosis, resulting in depletion of the stem cell pool. In addition, Mysm1-deficient NSCs skewed toward neurogenesis instead of astrogliogenesis. Mechanistic investigations with RNA sequencing and genome-wide CUT&Tag analysis revealed that Mysm1 epigenetically regulated Id4 transcription by regulating histone modification at the promoter region. After rescuing the expression of Id4, the hyperproliferation and imbalance differentiation of Mysm1-deficient NSCs was reversed. Additionally, knockdown Mysm1 in aged mice could promote NSC proliferation. Collectively, the present study identified a new factor Mysm1 which is essential for NSC homeostasis and Mysm1-Id4 axis may be an ideal target for proper NSC proliferation and differentiation.
