Cards in this deck (32)

  1. 1establish asymmetryasymmetric division
    symmetric div
  2. 2asymmetric divisionsister cells born diff
    some cyt comps not distrib evenly
    get diff things after div
    ex: TS comps
    diff cyt = diff path
  3. 3symmetric divisionby induction
    sister cells become diff as a result of influences (signal) acting on them after birth
    neighbor cells send diff signals and cause differentiation
    synth dif prot - use diff DNA
  4. 4differentiation causes: "sculpt and build embryo"SIMP D
    Signaling (induction)
    Interaction
    Movement
    Proliferation
    Death (apoptosis)
  5. 5early animal developmentembryos resemble eachother
    = common evol ancestor
    many mechs early in development are common in in/invertebrates
  6. 6universal mech of animal devEngrailed - deletion: rescue with a different species
    mouse + fly engr gene = normal
    all species use sim protein molecs to:
    define SPECIALIZED CELLS
    define DIFFERENCES between body regions
    create the BODY PATTERN
    = develop adult organism
  7. 7what drives gastrulation acronym?E-D-E-F-E-S-B-I-G-E
    change of cell SHAPE
    cells rearrange POSITIONS with respect to one another
    Filopodial-ECM interactions
  8. 81) change cell shape gastrEPI CELLS AT BOTTOM of blastula change shape (cytoskeleton) and begin to INVAGINATE, producing a broad flat dome
    forms gastrula
  9. 92) rearrangecells in DOME rearrange into long, narrow GUT tube
  10. 103filopodia + ECM
    at same time, cells extend FILOPODIA to gram ECM and pull tube inward (strong lateral attachments btwn cells)
  11. 114surface cells slide along the surface toward the BLASTOPORE and then migrate inward into the INSIDE of the EMBRYO
  12. 125GUT + EPI
    movt are complete when the end of the gut tube contacts the epi cells at the opposite end of the embryo, creating a hole (future mouth); other end is the future anus
  13. 13fates of ectodermneural - nervous system
    epidermal - epidermis
    mesoderm goes nerual b/c interact w/ neurogenic region
  14. 14net result of gastrulationendoderm ==> gut
    ectoderm ==> neural (tube,crest) or epidermal
    mesoderm ==> notochord
  15. 15eventual fate of neural tube, crest; lumenneural tube - CNS
    neural crest - PNS
    lumen - ventricles in brain
  16. 16microtubules actinMICROTUBULES
    1) non-cov
    2) dynamic polymers (elongate/shorten)
    3) assembled from alpha, beta tubulin subunits
    proper regulation essential for cell function and viability
    ACTIN - also dynamic
  17. 17NEURULATION how do ecto ==> epi/ **neuralchanges in cytoskeleton (allso, att btwn cells)
    cells that become epidermis get shorter/flatter
    microtubules in neural plate cells elongate, actin filaments contract ==> form neural tube
    cellular rearrangements - CAMs
    cadherins fold and make neural tube
    n-cad = nerual cad - made by inner
    e-cad = epi - made by outer
  18. 18Inductioncells closest to signal get enough to sense to tell to differentiate
    works by gradient - cells closer get more effect; decreases with difference
  19. 19cell cycle w/ inductioncell cycle w/ ind = 30 min
    normally 24 hrs
    divide faster b/c
    1) normal div - have to copy DNA, compartments. early div (before blast) - don't have to make new comps, not grow in mas
    2) copy dna = cell makes many origins of rep = more DNA synth
  20. 20frog development up to blastulaneed mechs to build asymm
    frog - cyt not symm
    cytoplasm: grey crescent, site of sperm entry
    inner- more asymm ==> div, not same cyt
    early div vertical, later horizontal
    neighboring cells send signaling molecules and change cell shape
  21. 21determination vs differentiationdetermination - point when cell committed to particular fate, even though not yet exhibiting differentiated properties
    differentiation - acquisition/expression of differentiated properties
  22. 22embryonic fragments and determination/fates1) remove animal from PREGASTRULA, culture, becomes EPIDERMIS
    2) remove animal cap from GASTRULA, culture, becomes NEURAL
    = thought epidermal was default
  23. 23dorsal lip experiment spemman and mangoldtook cells from DORSAL LIP and put in ectopic (wrong) site ==> promote 2nd nervous system ==> cells that would have been epidermal changed phenotype (got second head)
    ==> controlled fate of cells in other embryo
    dorsal lip - organizer cells
  24. 243 ways to isolate neuralization factors1) isolate factor from dorsal blastopore
    (failed b/c not enough starting material, bad fractionation techs)
    2) trial and error w/ "candidates"
    (fail b/c too many positive results)
    3) test other tissues for activity
    (fragments from diff organs, organisms were inductive)
  25. 25ID of noggin as Neur factorA) egg - normal
    B) egg + UV ==> no NS (ventralized)
    C) egg + Li ==> large NS (hyperdorsalized)
    D) egg + UV + mRNA from Li egg ==> normal (some prot code for NF)
    E) organizer region mRNA ==> rev transcriptase ==> cDNA
    org cDNA + UV ==> normal (cDNA code for NF)
  26. 26which cDNA codesadded 6 diff cDNA in plasmids to e Coli
    plate
    each colony had a plasmid
    plate + UV separately
    plate w/ cDNA for NF expr NS
    ==> code seq ==> AA seq ==> IMF
    showed noggin in organizer
  27. 27dom-neg activinactivin - epi
    dom-neg receptor = neural
    -signaling blocked so neural
    -sugg neur default
    proposed activin inh neuralization of ecto
    = neural is default, epi needs inducer
  28. 28disoc animal cap expprior to gastrulation
    animal cap ==> epi
    signal goes to more cells b/c closer
    animal cap dissoc ==> neural
    weak signal
    = neural default
  29. 29sogchordin homolog in flies
    sog KO ==> epidermilzation
    sog + ==> neuralization
    interacts w/ dpp
    antagonize eachother
    dpp KO ==> neuralization
    dpp + ==> epidermalization
  30. 30bmp4epi
    sim to dpp
    BMP4 + dissoc animal - epi
    = need signaling
  31. 31neuralation occurs first whereanterior end
  32. 32bmp4 bindingbinds receptor - epi
    inh by noggin, chordin (mesoderm)
    noggin - neural inducer b/c inh epi
