Abstract excerpt
Mutations in GLI3 manifest in several distinct clinical phenotypes including Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome and Pallister-Hall syndrome (PHS). GLI3 belongs to the GLI family of transcription factors that mediates extracellular Sonic hedgehog (SHH) signals. In the absence of SHH signals, GLI3 is processed to form a transcriptional repressor termed GLI3R. During early limb development, the regulation of GLI3...
