ZRS - ZPA regulatory sequence
This locus represents a highly conserved functional element that is located in an intron of the limb development membrane protein 1 (LMBR1) gene. In the developing limb bud, this element functions as a long-range enhancer of the sonic hedgehog signaling molecule (SHH) gene, which is located approximately 1 Mb downstream. Mutations in this element disrupt limb patterning and can result in a range of congenital limb malformations, including preaxial polydactyly, triphalangeal thumbs, Werner mesomelic syndrome (WMS), polysyndactyly, or Laurin-Sandrow syndrome.
