Sonic hedgehog (shh) expression is detectable in the posterior mesenchyme of many developing vertebrate limbs. We have isolated an RT-PCR fragment from the axolotl, Ambystoma mexicanum, that has high identity to other vertebrate shh genes. We describe the localization of this transcript during devel

The zone of polarizing activity (ZPA) is a specialized region involved in the antero-posterior (A-P) axis formation in chick and mouse limb buds. The existence of ZPA in the posterior margin is suggested in Xenopus hindlimb buds because 180Β°rotation of the distal limb tip induces the supernumerary l
## Abstract In the past twenty years, secreted signaling molecules of the Wnt family have been found to play a central role in controlling embryonic development from hydra to human. In the developing vertebrate limb, Wnt signaling is required for limb bud initiation, early limb patterning (which is
Homeobox genes play important roles in pattern formation during development. Here, we report the cloning and temporal and spatial expression patterns of a novel homeobox gene Backfoot (BFT for the human gene, and Bft for the mouse gene), whose expression reveals an early molecular distinction betwee
PB-cadherin is a novel classic type of cadherin predominantly expressed in brain of adult rats (Sugimoto et al. [1996] J. Biol. Chem. 271:11548-11556). To examine the spatial and temporal expression of PB-cadherin during development, we isolated full-length cDNA of mouse PB-cadherin and studied its
