(a)

Summary Introduction

To analyse:

The infectivity of enveloped viruses if they were prevented from budding.

Introduction:

Viruses comprise of a core of nucleic acids and a protective coating of capsid. In addition to these structures, enveloped viruses possess an envelope of membranous material. They invade and infect their host cells. Following replication and assembly in the host cells, these viruses bud off from the host cell and attack new cells.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To analyse:

If a lytic infection could be caused by injection of only the RNA of an influenza virus into a cell.

Introduction:

H5N2 virus infection caused a widespread and severe infection in millions of chicken and caused a great loss to poultry farms and food industry. The virus was named because of the presence of Hemagglutinin protein (H) that allows viruses to invade cells of the respiratory tract and the enzyme neuraminidase (N) that facilitates penetration of the virus in target cells by digesting mucus.

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.
