Chapter 9, Problem 1PI

(1)

Summary Introduction

To draw: A cross-section diagram that shows in the H zone.

Introduction: Myofilaments within the myofibrils are organized in a continuous manner with cylindrical units called sarcomeres. Inside the skeletal muscle fibers, there are several repeating sarcomeres arranged within a section of a myofibril. Overlapping of thick and thin filaments constitutes each sarcomere.

Explanation of Solution

Pictorial representation: Fig.1 represents the H zone though cross-section of muscle fiber.

VANDER'S HUMAN PHYS CONNECT ACCESS, Chapter 9, Problem 1PI , additional homework tip  1

Fig.1: H zone

H zone is the central portion of the A band that is present only in the resting sarcomere. The H zone region does not have overlapping thin filament. It only has thick filament.

Fig.1: I zone

I band is the only region that contains thin filament and extends from both directions of Z disk. At the region of maximal shortening, the thin filaments of the muscle fiber are pulled parallel along the thick filaments. This leads to decrease of I bands.

Fig.1: M line

M line is the narrow, dark band in the center region of the H zone known as M line that corresponds to proteins link together at the central region of the adjacent thick filament.

Fig.1: Z line

The sarcomeres are composed of thin and thick overlapping filaments. It is delineated by Z disks on both ends. These disks are composed of specialized proteins that are perpendicular to myofilaments and function as an anchor for the thin filament.

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.
