Claim One:
1. A method for detecting or selecting a dopaminergic neuron and/or a progenitor cell thereof, wherein the method comprises the step of contacting a cellular sample potentially comprising a dopaminergic neuron and/or a progenitor cell thereof with a polynucleotide that hybridizes under stringent conditions to a transcript of a gene that consists of a nucleotide sequence of any one of (1) to (6): (1) the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 13; (2) a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:14; (3) a nucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to a gene consisting of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 13; (4) the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 15 or 17; (5) a nucleotide sequence encoding a polypeptide consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 16 or 18; and (6) a nucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to a gene consisting of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 15 or 17.
