Cleavage
rapid cell division
no overall growth
no increase in volume
![Page 3: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Cleavage
Cell Cycle Control
Initially, factors stored in the egg control cleavage (the
cell cycle);
e.g. stored mRNAs
stored proteins
….. initiate the cell division
Mitosis Promoting Factor (MPF) stimulates the cell cycle
![Page 4: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Cleavage-Stage Cell Cycle -blastomeres
![Page 5: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cleavage-Stage Cell Cycle-
blastomeres
MPF – mitosis promoting factor:
-Cyclin B – controls cdc2 activity
-cdc2 = cyclin dependent Kinase
CDK phosphorylates histones,
etc.
#Cyclin B degrades; cell division
stops
Cyclin B presence/degradation
controlled by egg cytoplasmic
proteins
![Page 6: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Mid Blastula Transition (MBT)
-the rate of cleavage decreases, the blastomeres
become motile, and nuclear genes begin to be
transcribed.
#Cleavage begins soon after fertilization and ends shortly
after the stage when the embryo achieves a new balance
between nucleus and cytoplasm.

Post Cleavage Cell
Cycle
Post MBT:
• Cell cycle adds two
G phases
• New mRNA
transcription
• Cell division
becomes
asynchronous

Sea Urchin Zygote
![Page 19: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Sea Urchin Cell Fate
Cells are specified by either: Asymmetric distribution of patterning molecules
into particular cells or cell-cell interactions
Mechanisms for establishing asymmetry:
1. Patterning molecules bound to egg cytoskeleton
2. Molecules actively transported along the cytoskeleton
3. Molecules become associated with one centrosome, and then follow that
centrosome into one of the two mitotic sister cells
Once asymmetry is established, one cell can specify another (and
participate in reciprocal inductions)

SUMMARY
![Page 44: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
1. During cleavage, most cells do not grow. Rather, the volume of
the oocyte is cleaved into numerous cells. The major exceptions
to this rule are mammals.
2. The blastomere cell cycle is governed by the synthesis and
degradation of cyclin. Cyclin synthesis promotes the formation of
MPF, and MPF promotes mitosis. Degradation of cyclin
brings the cell back to the S phase. The G phases are added at
the midblastula transition.
3. "Blast" vocabulary: A blastomere is a cell derived from cleavage
in an early embryo. A blastula is an embryonic structure composed
of blastomeres. The cavity in the blastula is the blastocoel. If the
blastula lacks a blastocoel, it is a stereo blastula. A mammalian
blastula is called a blastocyst (in Chapter 11), and the invagination
where gastrulation begins is the blastopore.
![Page 45: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
4. The movements of gastrulation include invagination, involution, ingression,
delamination, and epiboly.
5. Three axes are the foundations of the body: the anterior-posterior axis
(head to tail or mouth to anus), the dorsal-ventral axis (back to belly), and the
right-left axis (between the two lateral sides of the body).
6. In all four invertebrates described here, cleavage is holoblastic. In the sea
urchin, cleavage is radial; in the snail, spiral; in the tunicate, bilateral; and in
the nematode, rotational.
7. In the tunicate, snail, and nematode, gastrulation occurs when there are
relatively few cells, and the blastopore becomes the mouth. This is the
protostome mode of gastrulation.
8. Body axes in these species are established in different ways. In some,
such as the sea urchin and tunicate, the axes are established at fertilization
through determinants in the egg cytoplasm. In other species, such as the
nematode and snail, the axes are established by cell interactions later
in development.
![Page 46: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
9. In the sea urchin, gastrulation occurs only after thousands of cells have formed, and the blastopore becomes the anus. This is the deuterostome mode of gastrulation, and
is characteristic only of echinoderms and chordates.
10. In sea urchins, cell fates are determined by signaling. The micromeres constitute a
major signaling center. β-catenin is important for the inducing capacity of the
micromeres.
11. Differential cell adhesion is important in regulating sea urchin gastrulation. The
micromeres delaminate first from the vegetal plate. They form the primary
mesenchyme which becomes the skeletal rods of the pluteus larva. The vegetal plate
invaginates to form the endodermal archenteron, with a tip of secondary mesenchyme cells. The archenteron elongates by convergent extension and is guided
to the future mouth region by the secondary mesenchyme.
12. Snails exhibit spiral cleavage and form stereoblastulae, having no blastocoels. The
direction of the spiral cleavage is regulated by a factor encoded by the mother and
placed into the oocyte. Spiral cleavage can be modified by evolution, and
adaptations of spiral cleavage have allowed some molluscs to survive in otherwise harsh conditions.
![Page 47: Early development of invertebrates](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020208/55a5e1691a28abc11d8b4623/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
14. The tunicate fate map is identical on its right and left sides. The yellow
cytoplasm contains muscle-forming determinants; these act autonomously.
The nervous system of tunicates is formed conditionally, by interactions
between blastomeres.
15. The soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was chosen as a model
organism because it has a small number of cells, a small genome, is easily
bred and maintained, has a short lifespan, can be genetically manipulated,
and has a cuticle through which one can see cell movements.
16. In the early divisions of the C. elegans zygote, one daughter cell becomes
a founder cell (producing differentiated descendants) and the other becomes
a stem cell (producing other founder cells and the germ line).
17. Blastomere identity in C. elegans is regulated by both autonomous and
conditional specification.
