✦ Synopsis

A reconstruction of the anagenetic transformations from fins to tetrapod limbs is represented considering the self-evident mechanical constraints which must have limited the construction and thus the function and the transformation.

The study of the origin and evolution of the tetrapod limb has benefited enormously from the confluence of molecular and paleontological data. In the last two decades, our knowledge of the basic molecular mechanisms that control limb development has grown exponentially, and developmental biologists

Analysis of the possible evolution of flavin catalysis in succinate dehydrogenase suggests as the ultimate state an active site that bears one or more acid functions and uses the enediol form of the substrate rather than the carbanion as a nucleophile. In the case of flavoenzyme catalyzed oxidation
