Abstract excerpt
In order to directly test the function of Hox genes in vertebrate limb development, we have employed a replication-competent retroviral vector to express the genes ectopically in developing chick limb buds. It has been hypothesized that the sum of all Hox genes expressed in a developing region fo...
