Nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) and silencing mediator of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone (SMRT) are critical regulators that mediate transcriptional repression through histone deacetylation. Despite high structural homology, their distinct roles in the central nervous system remain poorly understood. To elucidate these roles, we generated neuronal-specific NCoR1 or SMRT knockout mice using Snap25-IRES2-Cre mice. Behavioral assessments revealed that while both NCoR1 and SMRT deficiency…
