Summary of Eukaryotic Gene Expression

Video: The Epigenetics of Identical Twins Genetic Science Learning Center

Embryonic Development of Multicellular Organisms Section 18.4

Embryonic Development: Zygote  Organism Cell Division: large # identical cells through mitosis Cell Differentiation: cells become specialized in structure & function Morphogenesis: “creation of form” – organism’s shape

Determination: irreversible series of events that lead to cell differentiation

Cytoplasmic determinants: maternal substances in egg distributed unevenly in early cells of embryo

Induction: cells triggered to differentiate Cell-Cell Signals: molecules produced by one cell influences neighboring cells Eg. Growth factors

Pattern formation: setting up the body plan (head, tail, L/R, back, front)

Morphogens: substances that establish an embryo’s axes

Homeotic genes: master control genes that control pattern formation (eg. Hox genes)

Evolving Switches, Evolving Bodies HHMI Short Film

Pitx1 Gene = Homeotic/Hox Gene Stickleback Fish Humans Development of pelvic bone Development of anterior structures, brain, structure of hindlimb Mutation may cause clubfoot, polydactyly (extra fingers/toes), upper limb deformities

Role of Apoptosis Most of the embryonic cells are produced in excess Cells will undergo apoptosis (programmed cell death) to sculpture organs and tissues Carried out by caspase proteins

Cancer results from genetic changes that affect cell cycle control Section 18.5

Control of Cell Cycle: Proto-oncogene = stimulates cell division Tumor-suppressor gene = inhibits cell division Mutations in these genes can lead to cancer

Proto-Oncogene Oncogene Gene that stimulates normal cell growth & division Mutation in proto-oncogene Cancer-causing gene Effects: Increase product of proto- oncogene Increase activity of each protein molecule produced by gene

Proto-oncogene  Oncogene

Genes involved in cancer: Ras gene: stimulates cell cycle (proto- oncogene) Mutations of ras occurs in 30% of cancers p53 gene: tumor-suppresor gene Functions: halt cell cycle for DNA repair, turn on DNA repair, activate apoptosis (cell death) Mutations of p53 in 50+% of cancers

Cancer results when mutations accumulate (5- 7 changes in DNA) Active oncogenes + loss of tumor-suppressor genes The longer we live, the more likely that cancer might develop

Summary Embryonic development occurs when gene regulation proceeds correctly Cancer occurs when gene regulation goes awry
