Pré-requis : Cell and molecular biology, biochemistry, physiology.
The main topics are those of the analysis of the interaction between DNA and proteins, the study of gene expression, including manipulation of the expression level, cell imaging, receptor function, and electrophysiology. The integrated use of the tools presented will be further illustrated by recent scientific publications.
At the end of this course, students will be able to use the tools needed to study the function of genes and their expression. Students will also be able to use the tools needed to investigate the subcellular localization and function of the proteins encoded by these genes.
