Researcher in <gene regulation> and <evolutionary developmental biology>. Kvon and collaborators tested snake versions of the <ZRS enhancer> in mice: replacing the mouse regulatory sequence with snake sequences reduced <limb> development, while restoring a lost binding site could restore <enhancer> function. The experiment connects changes in a regulatory <DNA> sequence with an evolutionary change in body form.<Progressive Loss of Function in a Limb Enhancer during Snake Evolution by Evgeny Z.
