Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2017 Nov; 114(47):12448-12453. PMID: 29109273
The TGF-β family ligands myostatin, GDF11, and activins are negative regulators of skeletal muscle mass, which have been reported to primarily signal via the ActRIIB receptor on skeletal muscle and...

Front Cell Dev Biol . 2017 May; 5:47. PMID: 28523267
Mammalian limb development is driven by the integrative input from several signaling pathways; a failure to receive or a misinterpretation of these signals results in skeletal defects. The brachydactylies, a...

Witte F, Chan D, Economides A, Mundlos S, Stricker S
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2010 Jul; 107(32):14211-6. PMID: 20660756
Elongation of the digit rays resulting in the formation of a defined number of phalanges is a process poorly understood in mammals, whereas in the chicken distal mesenchymal bone morphogenetic...

FASEB J . 2010 Mar; 24(7):2417-26. PMID: 20215527
Dishevelled (Dvl) is a multifunctional effector of different Wnt cascades. Both canonical Wnt3a and noncanonical Wnt5a stimulate casein-kinase-1 (CK1) -mediated phosphorylation of Dvl, visualized as electrophoretic mobility shift [phosphorylated and...

Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 2009 Sep; 390(2):211-6. PMID: 19785987
Wtip is a LIM domain protein of the Ajuba/Zyxin family involved in kidney and neural crest development; Ror2 is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the development of skeleton, heart,...

Hum Mol Genet . 2009 Jul; 18(21):4013-21. PMID: 19640924
Mutations in ROR2 cause dominant brachydactyly type B (BDB1) or recessive Robinow syndrome (RRS), each characterized by a distinct combination of phenotypic features. We here report a novel nonsense mutation...

Brachydactyly type A1 (BDA1) was the first recorded disorder of the autosomal dominant Mendelian trait in humans, characterized by shortened or absent middle phalanges in digits. It is associated with...

Witte F, Dokas J, Neuendorf F, Mundlos S, Stricker S
Gene Expr Patterns . 2009 Feb; 9(4):215-23. PMID: 19185060
Wnt signalling plays important roles in patterning and outgrowth of the vertebrate limb. Different mutations in Wnt genes, their antagonists or (co-)receptors result in patterning and outgrowth defects as well...
