“…These defects include preaxial polydactyly type 2 and type 3 (PPD 2/3, MIM#s 174500, 174600), triphalangial thumb polysyndactyly (TPTPS; MIM# 190605)), syndactyly type IV (SD4; MIM# 186200), and Werner's mesomelic syndrome (MIM# 188770). Well over 20 different point mutations in human, mouse, and the domestic cat are known to cause PPD [Albuisson et al, 2011;Dobbs et al, 2000;Farooq et al, 2010;Furniss et al, 2008;Gurnett et al, 2007;Lettice et al, 2003;Lettice et al, 2008;Sato et al, 2007;Wieczorek et al, 2010]. In addition, chromosomal rearrangements that result in genomic duplications of the ZRS are associated with TPTPS and SD4 [Klopocki et al, 2008;Sun et al, 2008].…”
