Chapter 11, Problem 20Q
Summary Introduction

To determine: Whether triacylglycerol is incorporated into the lipid layer.

Introduction: Triacylglycerol, also called triglyceride is an ester that is a main constituent of body fat as well as vegetable fat. It is derived from glycerol and three fatty acids.

Summary Introduction

To determine: If triacylglycerol is incorporated into the lipid layer, then which part of the molecule would face the interior of the bilayer and which would face the water on either side of the bilayer.

Introduction: Triacylglycerol is also known as triacylglyceride or triglyceride. It is an ester that is derived from glycerol and three fatty acids. In the humans and in other animals, it is an important constituent of body fat. It is a major component of the human skin oils.

Summary Introduction

To determine: If triacylglycerol is not incorporated into the lipid layer, then what sort of structure would these molecules form in the aqueous environment inside a cell.

Introduction: Triacylglycerol are the lipids, which contain three fatty acids attached to the three carbons of a glycerol molecule by an ester bond.

You aim to test the hypothesis that the Tbx4 and Tbx5 genes inhibit each other's expression during limb development. With access to chicken embryos and viruses capable of overexpressing Tbx4 and Tbx5, describe an experiment to investigate whether these genes suppress each other's expression in the limb buds. What results would you expect if they do repress each other? What results would you expect if they do not repress each other?
You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
You implant an FGF10-coated bead into the anterior flank of a chicken embryo, directly below the level of the wing bud. What is the phenotype of the resulting ectopic limb?  Briefly describe the expected expression domains of 1) Shh, 2) Tbx4, and 3) Tbx5 in the resulting ectopic limb bud.
