Bat Accelerated Regions Identify a Bat Forelimb Specific Enhancer in the HoxD Locus.

The molecular events leading to the development of the bat wing remain largely unknown, and are thought to be caused, in part, by changes in gene expression during limb development. These expression changes could be instigated by variations in gene regulatory enhancers. Here, we used a comparative g...
