The paper tests a putative cis-regulatory element near Shox2 in jerboas to see if it affects mouse limb bone length, finding no detectable phenotype.

This paper uses CRISPR-mediated conditional mutagenesis to show BMP/GDF signaling restricts postnatal bone overgrowth by regulating both periosteal and endosteal osteoblasts.

The paper investigates how vertebrae elongate differently in mice and jerboas to achieve disproportionate tail lengths, identifying NPR3 as a key regulator of skeletal proportion.

This study compares Cas9 and Prime Editing (PE) in human iPS cells, showing PE's superior precision and demonstrating how sorting by PE expression affects allelic editing outcomes.
