Clam egg and sperm


Слайд 4Developmental Biology is the study of a PROCESS whereby a single

cell (the fertilized egg) divides and selectively activates expression of genes to produce a complex organism composed of many cell types.

Ex ovo omnia!


Слайд 5To form an embryo, the following (and more!) must occur:

Gametes

form and fuse (Reproduction)
Cells multiply (Growth)
Generation of Asymmetry
Axis Determination (Positional information)
- Anterior/Posterior (Head-Tail)
- Dorsal/Ventral (Back-Front)
- Left/Right
Cells differentiate
Structures are built from cells (Morphogenesis)
Animal cells organize into sheets and move
Plant cells form structures without moving

What kinds of PROCESSES are required?


Слайд 6Differentiation is a central idea of development:
All cells have the same

DNA, but
DIFFERENT CELLS express DIFFERENT GENES

Слайд 7Nature supports an incredible diversity of plant and animal body plans


Слайд 8Yet all of these organisms share conserved developmental mechanisms that are

evidence of their evolution from a common ancestor.

Our challenge is to understand both this diversity and this unity.

Слайд 9Developmental Biology is studied using the following TOOLS
Cell Biology
Genetics
Molecular Biology


Слайд 10Let’s Review the Basics
The body is made of millions to billions

of cells.
Cellular machinery is largely made up of proteins
Because of their different tasks, different cells contain different proteins
Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids, and these amino acids are "encoded" in the cell's DNA
Information flows from DNA to RNA to Protein
When one gene is mutated, one protein is affected (usually disabled).
All cells have the same DNA but different cells express different genes

Слайд 11Development Occurs at an Unfamiliar Scale
If a cell was the size

of a basketball (8 inches)









a mouse would be the size of Chapel Hill (10 miles)
a gene would be about an inch long.

Слайд 12Development Occurs at an Unfamiliar Scale
If a protein was the size

of a Volvo (10 feet)








a cell would be the size of Chapel Hill (10 miles)
a gene would be about 1.5 miles long but the strand of DNA would only be a few feet wide.

Слайд 13Two Extreme Models for Differentiation
from the late 1800’s (neither is correct)

Mosaic

development
Regulative development

Слайд 14 Roux’s landmark experiments with frog embryos:
do cells have

fixed identities that they can maintain without influence from their neighbors?

The Mosaic Development model proposes
that cells become progressively committed to specific cell fates


Only half

an embryo develops

“YES”!


Differential segregation of genetic potential?





4-cell stage

Kill 2 cells with a hot needle

and allow the remaining

2 cells to develop






Слайд 15Roux’s landmark experiments
Figure 3.16. Destroying (but not removing) one cell of

a 2-cell frog embryo results in the development of only half the embryo.

Слайд 16 Driesch’s experiments with sea urchin embryos:
do cells have

fixed identities that they can maintain without influence from their neighbors?

The Regulative Development model proposes that cells retain the ability to adjust their fates in response to their cellular environment



(No differential segregation of genetic potential)

“NO”!

Each cell regulated its development
to produce an entire embryo


Слайд 17C. elegans


Слайд 18How do cells know which genes to
activate as they go

through development?

Most organisms use 2 sources of info
parents
neighbors


Слайд 19
Information from parents:
The Cell lineage
But what makes “red” different from “blue”

in the first place?

Mother cell


Слайд 20
Mother cell






Unequal localization
of "determinants"
Cell division transfers
determinants to a single


daughter cell

Cells are now different.

Segregation of determinants

Cell type A

Cell type B

mechanism to generate asymmetry and subsequent cellular differentiation

determinants are usually proteins or mRNA.

information (proteins/
RNA) can be passed on uniformly, or can be segregated to one of the progeny cells.

Information from parents:


Слайд 21
Mother cell
Cell interactions


Cell type A
an alternative mechanism to generate

asymmetry and subsequent cellular differentiation

cell division places daughter cells in different environments

different environments lead to different cell fates


Cell type B

Cell division

Information from neighbors:


Слайд 22Cells don’t have to be inside an animal to
communicate with

each other

Examples

Yeast
Slime mold (Dictyostelium)

Слайд 23These cell-cell signals
lead the yeast cells
that receive them to
move together,


change shape
and ultimately fuse,
producing a diploid cell

Слайд 24The slime mold develops into an animal only when it (they?)

gets hungry!

Слайд 27The Cells of the Grex Differentiate


Слайд 28
Conclusion:
Even cells of the most simple eukaryotic organisms sense their

environment, migrate, adhere to each other, differentiate, and interact

Now, on to more complicated ones!


Слайд 29Breakthroughs in Modern Biology
1. All organisms share similar cellular machinery
2. All

animals use this machinery in similar ways to direct embryonic development

Plants Invertebrates Vertebrates




Why use model organisms?
What features do they have in common?
