Chapter 3, Problem 12TYU
Summary Introduction

To justify:

Whether comparing the amino acid sequences of 2 living species would show the same degree of divergence.

Concept introduction:

Every function (dynamic) of a living organism depends on proteins. Approximately more than 50% of the dry mass of most of the cells is proteins. Proteins are biologically functional molecules that are comprised of 1 or more than 1 polypeptide, which are formed of the amino acid sequences.

"One of the symmetry breaking events in mouse gastrulation requires the amplification of Nodal on the side of the embryo opposite to the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Describe one way by which Nodal gets amplified in this region." My understanding of this is that there are a few ways nodal is amplified though I'm not sure if this is specifically occurs on the opposite side of the AVE.  1. pronodal cleaved by protease -> active nodal 2. Nodal -> BMP4 -> Wnt-> nodal 3. Nodal-> Nodal, Fox1 binding site  4. BMP4 on outside-> nodal  Are all of these occuring opposite to AVE?
