Question
Chapter 43, Problem 10U
Summary Introduction
The eyes of the vertebrates and the invertebrates are analogous organs that have the same function but have different structures. Eyes are the sensory organ required for visualization purposes. The genes for eye development is the same invertebrates seemed to function normally in the insect genome.

Suppose that Drosophila has 3 thoracic hox genes (PS3 - PS5) and 10 abdominal hox genes (PS6 - PS15) corresponding to the three thoracic and 10 abdominal body segments. What would happen to the development of the fly if you inactivated PS6 and PS7?

embryos carrying the following mutations; also in each case darken in the area of the cells
in the cross-sectional view of the fly embryo which are expected to express the paulie gene.
D = dorsal; V = ventral.
a) a mutation which results in the deletion of the cytoplasmic domain of the Cookie protein.
b) A mutation which results in a constitutively active Bombe protein, i.e. the Bombe protein
is always in an activated state.
c) A mutation which causes the Pickle protein to be retained in the cytoplasm of the
embryo.
a. Explain how you could use worms transformedwith myo-2::GFP to find mutations that disrupt thestructure of the pharynx. How would the presenceof the transgene facilitate the mutant screen?b. Nematodes homozygous for loss-of-function mutations in a gene called pha-4 have no detectablepharyngeal structures. How could you use myo2::GFP to determine if pha-4 is a master regulatory gene that directs development of the pharynxin a manner similar to the way Pax-6/eyeless controls eye development?

Breast cancer cells that express the gene luciferase were then injected into the mammary glands of the mice. The metstasis of the tumors to the lungs could then be measured by imaging the presence of luciferase in the lungs. In 5-6 sentences, explain the data below and why knockout of Angpt2, MMP3 and MMP10 appears to inhibit metstastasis.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about Tbx5 is true? a.

- Based on the photographs shown, in which segments is the Antp gene normally expressed?arrow_forwardWe have spent a lot of time comparing channelrhodopsin (which is found in Chlamydomonas) with rhodopsin (which is found in humans). What about these two photoreceptors is correct? A. The opsin proteins are homologous and serve as ion channels that transport Ca2+ ions. B. The opsin proteins aren’t homologous, but both species have homologous enzymes involved in retinal synthesis. C. The opsin proteins aren’t homologous, but they both interact with G proteins, that do share a common ancestry. D. The opsin proteins are homologous, they just fold into very different native conformations.arrow_forward2) This diagram shows the signaling pathway involved in transducing extracellular matrix (ECM) signals to induce S-phase progression. Briefly: ECM (shown in green) binds to and activate integrins which bind to and activate Ras which binds to and activate Raf which binds to and activate MEK, which.... etc (you get the idea) until Erk activates cyclinD which the form a complex with CDK4/6. For the purpose of this problem, we consider that the signals provided by the ECM through this pathway are necessary and sufficient for the cell to enter S phase. Erk Integrin Erk Ras Raf MEK Cyclin D Cyclin D CDK4/6 S phase A) In your studies of the cell cycle, you isolated a new cell line called mutRAS2 cells. Unlike normal wild type cells, you find that Ras is always bound to GTP in mutRAS2 cells. Describe how the cell cycle differs between mutRAS2 cells and normal cells when ECM is not present. Explain your reasoning: B) In another mutant cell (named mutCD2), you found that a cyclinD mutation…arrow_forward
- In comparison to experimental results from the genetic manipulation of an invertebrate model, what pathologic outcome(s) would suggest that multiple homologs of a disease gene are present in humans? a. Missing the essential gene homolog that is lethal in fruit flies is also lethal in human infants. b. Different homologs of the essential gene are each expressed in different human organs, and mutations in these duplicated genes cause organ-specific diseases. c. Different homologs of the essential gene are each expressed in different stages of early child development, and mutations in each of these duplicated genes cause different diseases. d. In humans, defects in different homologs of the essential gene cause different loss-of-function diseases due to subfunctionalization. e. The essential gene is lethal in fruit flies, but there is no disease phenotype exhibited in people.arrow_forwardMarilyn Houck and Margaret Kidwell proposed that P elements were carried from Drosophila willistoni to Drosophila melanogaster by mites that feed on fruit flies (M. A. Houck et al. 1991. Science 253:1125–1129). What evidence do you think would be required to demonstrate that D. melanogaster acquired P elements in this way? Propose a series of experiments to provide such evidence.arrow_forwardThere is a protein called neurogenin that stimulates neuronal cells to differentiate. In order to determine what kind of receptor neurogenin binds to, you add a general phosphatase (one that can remove phosphates from any substrate) to neural cells when you add neurogenin, and you discover that this inhibits differentiation. Furthermore, in the presence of this phosphatase, you find that not even a G protein is activated in response to neurogenin. 1. With this information, what kind of receptor does neurogenin bind to? 2. In a normal cell, how does the G protein in this pathway get activated? 3. In a normal cell, why does the response to neurogenin cease over time?arrow_forward
