SOCS2 contributes to reduction of the third digit during development of the chicken forelimb. SOCS2 contributes to reduction of the third digit during development of the chicken forelimb

We used the RCAS avian retrovirus to overexpress SOCS2 in the developing chicken limb buds and transcriptome sequencing (mRNA-Seq) revealed changes in expression of genes known to be associated with growth and development in forelimbs with overexpressed SOCS2. Overall design: mRNA-seq data of injected right wing and uninjected (control) left wing of one chick embryo after SOCS2 overexpression were obtained by Illumina NovaSeq 6000.
