Chapter 16, Problem 8Q

A.

Summary Introduction

To explain: The extracellular signal molecule acetylcholine has different effects on different cell types in an animal and often binds to different cell-surface receptor molecules on different cell types.

B.

Summary Introduction

To explain: After acetylcholine is secreted from cells, it is long-lived, because it has to reach target cells all over the body.

C.

Summary Introduction

To explain: How both the GTP-bound α subunits and nucleotide-free βγ complexes-but not GDP-bound, fully assembled G proteins can activate other molecules downstream of GPCRs.

D.

Summary Introduction

To explain: IP3 is produced directly by the cleavage of an inositol phospholipid, without the incorporation of an additional phosphate group.

E.

Summary Introduction

To explain: Calmodulin regulates the intracellular Ca2+ concentration.

F.

Summary Introduction

To explain:  Different signals originating from the plasma membrane can be integrated by cross-talk between different signaling pathways inside the cell.

G.

Summary Introduction

To explain: Tyrosine phosphorylation serves to build binding sites for other proteins to bind to RTKs.

If using animals in medical experiments could save human lives, is it ethical to do so? In your answer, apply at least one ethical theory in support of your position.
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.
