Summary Introduction

To review:

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) fingerprinting and its use in identification of humans.

Introduction:

DNA fingerprinting was invented by Professor Sir Alec Jeffreys in 1984. This technique is widely used in the field of forensics to identify crime suspects. Another important use is paternity testing, where the father or the mother of achild can be identified.

"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?
