29
Q

Dale and Slack (more experiments)

what are the molecular inducers of mesoderm formation?

from dorsal-most cells:_______

A

dorsal mesoderm cells

30
Q

Dale and Slack (more experiments)

what are the molecular inducers of mesoderm formation?

_______: overlap of the presence of TGF-Beta signal and Beta-catenin accumulation

A

N. center

31
Q

Dale and Slack (more experiments)

what are the molecular inducers of mesoderm formation?

The dorsal side is distinguished molecularly: presence of _______

A

Beta-catenin

32
Q

Dale and Slack (more experiments)

what are the molecular inducers of mesoderm formation?

Ventral side: ________: mesodermalizing gene

A

siamois gene

33
Q

Ventral side: siamois gene; mesodermalizing gene
silent: ______ (silences them)

A

Tcf-3

34
Q

Dorsal side: siamois gene
_______: activate the gene

A

Beta-catenin

35
Q

_________: act as transcription factor the will help produce goosecoid gene

A

Siamois protein

36
Q

siamois protein: act as transcription factor the will help produce ______

A

goosecoid gene

37
Q

it is believed to be the determinant of organizer function. there may be some homology between fly and vertebrate goosecoid function

A

Goosecoid

38
Q

what are the properties of organizer tissue

A
  1. ability to become dorsal mesoderm
  2. ability to convert surrounding mesoderm into lateral mesoderm
  3. ability to dorsalize the ectoderm into neural ectoderm
  4. ability to initiate movements of gastrulation
  5. ability to induce neurulation
    (bcdii)
39
Q

Beta-catenin locate at _______ side to perform its function

A

dorsal side

40
Q

________: natural inactivator of Beta-catenin

A

Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 (GSK-3)

41
Q

________:upstream; inhibitor or GSK- 3

A

Disheveled (Dsh) proteins

42
Q

During _______: Dsh undergoes radical rearrangement; goes to dorsal side

A

cortical rotation

43
Q

Inhibition of _______ leads to activatipn of Beta-catenin

A

GSK-3

44
Q

why is GSK-3 inhibition important which leads to activation of Beta- catenin?

A

Beta-catenin is a determinant of dorsal mesodermal cell: important because dorsal mesodermal cells become the chordamesoderm that will become the primary organizer
