Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The heart is a pumping organ that pumps blood to different parts of the body by generating electrical impulses on its own. These electrical impulses generated in the heart are of major clinical significance and thus a system called electrocardiogram (ECG) is used to monitor the electrical activity of the heart. The ECG consists of waves, complexes, segments, and intervals that correspond to different activities of the heart such as the P wave, QRS complex, T wave, U wave, and QT interval. The ECG uses a characteristic graph paper having a square that denotes a particular time interval and this paper runs at the same speed as the ECG system.

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.
