DeltaEF1, a zinc finger and homeodomain transcription factor, is required for skeleton patterning in multiple lineages

Limb development: molecular dysmorphology is at hand!

We present a review of limb development integrating current molecular information and selected genetic disorders to illustrate the advances made in this field over the last few years. With this knowledge, clinical geneticists can now begin to consider molecular mechanisms and pathways when investigating patients with limb malformation syndromes.
