Axolotl Limb Regeneration

The study of axolotl limb regeneration requires precise genetic mapping to understand the mechanisms of tissue regrowth. Fillmore and his colleagues developed a scoring system, RSEM-EVAL, to evaluate the accuracy of gene expression data in species lacking established genomes. This framework enables the identification of high-quality transcriptome assemblies, providing a more reliable foundation for analyzing the molecular processes that drive limb regeneration.
