Chapter 2, Problem 1TC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
Why would David also have to change his diet and exercise program after the prescription of cholesterol-lowering medicine? Why would medication alone not be enough?
Introduction:
Cholesterol is hydrophobic lipid molecule with fused carbon rings. It is buried inside the cell membranes. The normal levels of low density lipoproteins (LDL) in the blood is 100mg/dl (milligram/deciliter) and the normal levels of high density lipoproteins (HDL) considered is 40mg/dl. The LDL and HDL form vesicles of membrane lipids, and cholesterol in blood due to the intake of diet containing large amounts of fats and lipids. The lipids deposit in the blood in the form of plaques and obstruct the flow of the blood in the vessels.

"One of the symmetry breaking events in mouse gastrulation requires the amplification of Nodal on the side of the embryo opposite to the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Describe one way by which Nodal gets amplified in this region."
My understanding of this is that there are a few ways nodal is amplified though I'm not sure if this is specifically occurs on the opposite side of the AVE.
1. pronodal cleaved by protease -> active nodal
2. Nodal -> BMP4 -> Wnt-> nodal
3. Nodal-> Nodal, Fox1 binding site
4. BMP4 on outside-> nodal
Are all of these occuring opposite to AVE?

What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar? Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?arrow_forward
