Topics in Development 1. totipotency: development depends on selective expression of the whole genome present in every cell. 2. blastula to gastrula: comparative analysis yields insights into the general nature of development 3. the three fundamental processes: –cell division (differential rates of division are critical, programmed cell death is significant) –cell differentiation (changes in integration and shape are critical; targeting cells with signals is a critical part of the process) –morphogenesis of tissues and organs (includes defining the individual’s polarities, dividing the organism into segments, and – in animals -- migration of cells in tissue origin)

The homeodomain - 60 amino acids of the homeotic gene product that remain very similar in all proteins made by homeotic genes. Homeotic genes:the DNA sequence of the gene (blue) contains a 180 bp sequence—the homeobox—(red) that is highly conserved.

The homeobox is relatively constant because it has a precise job.

Evolutionary changes in the timing of homeobox genes yield morphological change. Artemia, the brine shrimp

Another representation of the sequence of homeotic gene expression in an arthropod. Notice the continued prominence of Antp, Ubx, and Abd paralogs.
49
Timing of expression of the homeobox genes Antp, Ubx, and AbdA. Fading lines indicate weaker expression later in development.

Number of homeobox paralogs increases in arthropods. This illustration also shows change in timing of gene expression.
