Scientific Skills Exercise There is a lot of information in the figure on the next slide. 1) The top diagram depicts the very large regulatory region upstream of the Hoxd13 gene. The area between the slashes represents the DNA located between the promoter and the regulatory region. 2) The diagrams to the left of the bar graph show, first, the intact DNA and, next, the three altered DNA sequences. A red X indicates the segment (A, B, and/or C) that was deleted in each line of transgenic mice. 3) The horizontal bar graph shows the amount of Hoxd13 mRNA that was present in the digit-formation zone of each transgenic 12.5-dayold embryo paw relative to the amount that was in the digit-formation zone of a wild-type mouse that had the intact regulatory region (top bar = 100%). The paw images have blue stain visible where the Hoxd13 mRNA is located. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Which of the four treatments was the control for the experiment? a) the wild-type mouse C b) the transgenic mouse with all three segments deleted N c) the transgenic mouse with segments B and C deleted d) the transgenic mouse with only segment C deleted © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Which of the four treatments was the control for the experiment? a) the wild-type mouse C b) the transgenic mouse with all three segments deleted N c) the transgenic mouse with segments B and C deleted d) the transgenic mouse with only segment C deleted © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The hypothesis was that all three segments of the regulatory region are required for highest expression of the Hoxd13 gene. Is this hypothesis supported by the results? a) Yes; when any of the segments were deleted, the expression level dropped to less than 100% of the control. b) No; they did not delete the promoter, so the gene could still be expressed even without the segments. c) Yes; when all three segments were present, the expression level was at 100%. d) No; even when segments were deleted, the Hoxd13 gene was still being expressed. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

What was the effect on the amount of Hoxd13 mRNA when segments B and C were both deleted? a) Only about 60% of the control amount of Hoxd13 mRNA was produced. b) The deletion of segments B and C had no effect on the amount of Hoxd13 mRNA produced. c) Only about 35% of the control amount of Hoxd13 mRNA was produced. d) Only about 5% of the control amount of Hoxd13 mRNA was produced. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

How would you describe the spatial pattern of gene expression in the embryo paw as compared to the control? a) There is very light blue stain in the center of each digit zone as compared to the control. b) The blue stain is generally lighter than in the control, but all four digit zones are still visible. c) There is almost no blue stain anywhere in the paw as compared to the control. d) There is no blue stain at the base of the paw as compared to the control. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

Suppose the researchers had only measured the amount of Hoxd13 mRNA and not done the in situ hybridizations. What important information about the role of the regulatory segments would have been missed? a) The interaction of the regulatory region with the promoter would have been missed. b) The interaction among the different segments of the regulatory region would have been missed. c) The mRNA would not have been blue; therefore it could not have been measured for the results shown in the bar graph. d) The spatial patterns of Hoxd13 gene expression in the paws would have been missed. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
