Genetic evidence that FGFs play an instructive role in limb proximal-distal patterning

Half a century ago the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) at the distal tip of the tetrapod limb bud was shown to produce signals necessary for development along the proximal-distal (P-D) axis, but how these signals influence limb patterning is still much debated1,2. FGF gene family members are key AER-d...
