Chapter 6, Problem 2AA
Summary Introduction

To describe: The outcome of the electron transport chain (ETC) in both chloroplasts and mitochondria.

Concept introduction: Mitochondria are found in both plant and animal cells and are the sites of oxidative phosphorylation. Chloroplasts are found in autotrophic organisms and are the sites of light-dependent and light-independent organisms. Chloroplasts and mitochondria have DNA present in them to synthesize a few proteins involved in few reactions inside them. An electron transport chain is found in the inner mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotes, where it acts as a site for oxidative phosphorylation, a process through which ATP is produced through the use of ATP synthase. The electron transport chain is also found in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplast in photosynthetic bacteria.

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.
