Why the actin filaments revolve in steps of ATP synthesis with pause in between and what does the rotation correspond to in terms of the α 3 β 3 γ complex. Concept introduction: The total process of ATP synthesis is complex membrane-embedded enzyme that looks like a rounded structure with complete rotation. The rounded structure of enzyme is regarded as the F 1 subunit that protrudes into the mitochondrial matrix and contains the catalytic activity of the enzyme synthase. This subunit contains various polypeptide chains. The α and β subunit of the polypeptide chain, make up the bulk of the F 1 arranged alternatively in the rotational structure. The α and β subunit bind nucleotides but only the β subunits participate directly in catalysis functioning. The γ subunit breaks the symmetric position of the α 3 β 3 hexamer, in each of the β subunits is different by virtue of its interaction with a distinct face of γ.

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.
