Determination

Determination

During embryogenesis, cells become progressively committed to different fates through a two-step process: specification followed by determination. Specification is demonstrated by removing a segment of an early embryo, “neutrally” culturing the tissue in vitro—for example, in a petri dish with simple medium—and then observing the derivatives. If the cultured region gives rise to cell types that it would normally generate in the embryo, this means that it is specified. In contrast, determination...

Morphogenesis

Morphogenesis

Plant morphogenesis—the development of a plant’s form and structure—involves several overlapping developmental processes, including growth and cell differentiation. Precursor cells differentiate into specific cell types, which are organized into the tissues and organ systems that make up the functional plant.

Notch Signaling Pathway

Notch Signaling Pathway

The Notch signaling pathway is a major intracellular signaling pathway that is highly conserved over a broad spectrum of metazoan species. It stands unique from other intracellular signaling mechanisms in animals because notch protein itself acts as the receptor as well as the primary signaling molecule.
The Notch gene came into the limelight in 1914 after the discovery that its mutation in Drosophila melanogaster leads to a serrated (or "notched") wing margin phenotype. It was not until 1985...

Mechanism of Lamellipodia Formation

Mechanism of Lamellipodia Formation

Cells migrating in response to external stimuli form lamellipodia, which are thin membrane protrusions supported by a mesh of linked, branched, or unbranched actin filaments. These actin filaments interact with myosin motor proteins, creating the dynamic actomyosin complex within the cytoskeleton. Contractility, or the ability to generate contractile stress, is inherent to the actomyosin complex. It helps cells detect the stiffness of the surrounding ECM and exert contractile force for...

Cell Polarization by Rho Proteins

Cell Polarization by Rho Proteins

Cell polarity is the asymmetric distribution of cellular and membrane components, making one side of the cell different from the other. This polarity is essential to many processes such as embryogenesis, axon migration, glucose transport across epithelial cells, and directional cell migration. A migrating cell responds to intracellular or extracellular signals via molecular cascades that reorganize the actin cytoskeleton to establish this polarity. In these cells, the Rho family proteins Cdc42,...

TGF - β Signaling Pathway

TGF - β Signaling Pathway

The TGF-β signaling pathway regulates cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, motility, and development. TGF-β ligands that induce TGF-β signaling are synthesized in their latent form. Several proteases or cell surface receptors such as integrins act upon the latent form, releasing the active ligand. There are three types of mammalian TGF-βs: (TGF-β1, TGF-β2, and TGF-β3) that bind as homodimers or heterodimers to TGF-β receptors. The TGF-β receptors are of three kinds RI, RII, and RIII. The RI...

Resumen

La proteína decapentaplegia (DPP) actúa directamente a largas distancias para organizar el desarrollo de las alas de Drosophila. Diferentes concentraciones de DPP activan genes específicos, lo que sugiere que funciona como un morfógeno de gradiente.

Sus antecedentes:

El gen decapentaplegic (DPP) es crucial para el desarrollo del ala de Drosophila.
La proteína DPP se secreta a partir de una franja celular específica e influye en las células distantes.

Objetivo del estudio:

Investigar el mecanismo de acción de la DPP durante el desarrollo de las alas de Drosophila.
Para determinar si la DPP actúa directa o indirectamente a través de otras moléculas de señalización.
Para entender cómo los gradientes de concentración de DPP afectan a la expresión génica.

Principales métodos:

Utilizando clones de células genéticamente modificadas en las alas de Drosophila.
Manipulación de la actividad del receptor DPP (activación o abolición constitutiva).
Analizando la activación transcripcional de los genes aguas abajo (blind-optomotor y spalt).

Principales resultados:

El DPP actúa directamente sobre las células que responden a larga distancia.
DPP no actúa indirectamente a través de moléculas de señalización de corto alcance.
Los genes de ceguera optomotora y de escisión se activan por transcripción a diferentes distancias de las células secretoras de DPP.
La evidencia sugiere una respuesta genética diferencial a diferentes concentraciones de DPP.

Conclusiones:

El DPP funciona como un morfogén de largo alcance durante el desarrollo de las alas de Drosophila.
La activación del gen por DPP depende de los umbrales de concentración.
Esto proporciona un modelo para la comprensión de los gradientes morfógenos en el desarrollo.
