Fgf signalling triggers an intrinsic mesodermal timer that determines the duration of limb patterning

Abstract Complex signalling between the apical ectodermal ridge (AER - a thickening of the distal epithelium) and the mesoderm controls limb patterning along the proximo-distal axis (humerus to digits). However, the essential in vivo requirement for AER-Fgf signalling makes it difficult to understan...
