Animal Development II
Making an embryo…
Where were we
 Remember
gametogenesis
Spermatogenesis
 Oogenesis

Back to fertilization
 What
are model organisms?
 What
are the models for studying
fertilization?
 The
rules of engagement…(fig 60.3)
What does the sperm encounter first?
 How can it get through the jelly coat?

More about fertilization
 What
is penetration (aka. the
acrosome reaction)? (fig 60.3)

Remember the acrosome?



encounters jelly coat?

coat?


What is the acrosomal process

membrane?


acrosomal reaction…
Why are receptors important?
What happens next?
Sperm and egg membranes fuse
 HOORAY!!!


More about fertilization
 What
is the situation?

 How many sperm are available?
 Only ONE winner!

 What
is polyspermy?
 How is polyspermy prevented?

polyspermy
 What
is membrane potential?
 What happens to the membrane
potential upon sperm fusion?

polyspermy
 How

does the slow block work?
What is signal transduction?
What are second messengers?
 Why do we need them?

More about the slow block
 Where
are intracellular Calcium
stores?
How is calcium release triggered?
 How does it radiate over surface of
egg?


Doing the Calcium wave…

Campbell fig 47.3
More about the slow block
 What
does calcium release do?
Cortical granules fuse with PM
 Release contents into perivitelline
space

 What
are cortical granules?
Where are they located?
 What do they contain?

enzymes
 mucopolysacchariddes

More about the slow block
 What
do mucopolysaccharides do in
perivitelline space?
Remember osmosis?
 How do mucopolysaccharides affect
osmolarity?
 What does this do to perivitelline
space?

More about the slow block
 What
do the enzymes from cortical
granules do?
What happens when polysaccharides
become crosslinked?
 How would this affect sperm
penetration?

 How
long does all of this take?
Let’s talk about cleavage!
 What
is cleavage?
How often does it occur?
 Does the zygote increase in size?
 What are blastomeres?

More about cleavage
 What
effect does yolk have on
cleavage?
Isolecithal
 Mesolecithal
 Telolecithal


Does sperm entry affect cleavage
plane?
 What is the polarity of a mammalian
embryo?


Embryonic  abembryonic

Remember the trophoblast/inner cell mass
From: Plotrowska and Zernicka-Goetz (2001) Nature 409:517-21
More about cleavage
 Radial
vs. spiral cleavage
Radial cleavage aligns animal cells with
vegetal cells
 Spiral cleavage offsets animal cells
from vegetal cells

 How
does cleavage relate to
phylogeny of coelomates?
Deuterostomes  radial cleavage
 Protostomes  animal cleavage

