In contrast to their similar brain abnormalities,newborn mice deficient in Apaf1 or caspase-9 have dis-tinctive abnormalities in their paws. Apaf1-deficient micefail to eliminate the webs between their developing digits,whereas caspase-9-deficient mice have normally formeddigits (Figure Q18–1). If Apaf1 and caspase-9 function inthe same apoptotic pathway, how is it possible for thesedeficient mice to differ in web-cell apoptosis?
What factors called mitogens stim-ulate cultured mammalian cells to proliferate by inducing expression of early response genes. Many of these genesencode transcription factors that stimulate expression ofgenes encoding the G1/S phase cyclins and E2F transcriptionfactors.
Development of the nematode Caenorhabditis ele-gans generates exactly 959 somatic cells; it also producesan additional 131 cells that are later eliminated by apop-tosis. Classical genetic experiments in C. elegans isolatedmutants that led to the identification of the first genesinvolved in apoptosis. Of the many mutations affectingapoptosis in the nematode, none have ever been found inthe gene for cytochrome c. Why do you suppose that sucha central effector molecule in apoptosis was not found inthe many genetic screens for “death” genes that have beencarried out in C. elegans?
WRITE ABOUT A THEME: ORGANIZATION The properties oflife emerge at the biological level of the cell. The highly regulated process of apoptosis is not simply the destruction of acell; it is also an emergent property. Write a short essay (about100–150 words) that briefly explains the role of apoptosis inthe development and proper functioning of an animal, and describe how this form of programmed cell death is a process thatemerges from the orderly integration of signaling pathways.

Figure 9.8 HER2 is a receptor tyrosine kinase. In 30 percent of human breast cancers, HER2 is permanently activated, resulting in unregulated cell division. Lapatinib, a drug used to treat breast cancer, inhibits HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase autophosphorylation (the process by which the receptor adds phosphates onto itself), thus reducing tumor growth by 50 percent. Besides autophosphorylation, which of the following steps would be inhibited by Lapatinib? Signaling molecule binding, dimerization, and the downstream cellular response. Dimerization, and the downstream cellular response. The downstream cellular response. Phosphatase activity, dimerization, and the downsteam cellular response.
# 3 You've engineered a mutant cell where the FADD adapter was truncated. The mutant FADD only contains the Death Domain, and lacks the Death Effector Domain.

Rous Sarcoma Virus can cause cancer in infected cells. The tumor causing nature of the virus is linked to it harbouring a gene that codes for a unique receptor tyrasine kinase (RTK). What is it about the tyrosine kinase that accounts for the tumor-causing nature of the virus? O It is unrelated to any human kinase and thus is able to act uncontrollably in causing cell division. O It cantain activate downstream effectors without binding to a SH2 domain. O It lacks the carboxy-terminal regulatory domain that is present in RTKS of non-cancerous cells.
