Main themes |
In eucaryotes and procaryotes: Structure of DNA, organization of the genome, DNA replication, flow of genetic information (from DNA to protein).
|
Aims |
The students should know the fundamentals of molecular genetics in eucaryotes and procaryotes, and become familiarized with the principles of nucleic acid and protein analysis and of genetic engineering; The content of the course constitutes a prerequisite for other courses like microbiology, biochemistry or immunology.
|
Content |
For the theoretical part: In eucaryotes and procaryotes: Structure of DNA, genome organisation, DNA replication, organisation of genes, synthesis and control of synthesis of mRNA, tRNA, rRNA, protein synthesis (translation; post-translational modifications; protein sorting).
Practical part: Analysis of plasmidic DNA, electrophoretic separation of DNA fragments, screening of recombinant bacteria, restriction enzyme analysis of DNA, polymerase chain reaction.
|
Other information |
Assessment: By written exam. The students will be examined on their knowledge of the subject, and on their capacity to use the knowledge to solve problems.
Support: Book: Biochimie Génétique. Biologie Moléculaire. J. Etienne et E. Clauser, Editions Masson;
Laboratory exercise book provided by lecturers.
