BIO 568 - Molecular Biology of Eucaryotes

Graduate standing; BIO 111, BIO 113, BIO 326, BIO 328, BIO 405, BIO 406; CHM 220 or CHM 330; consent of instructor. (4).

Survey of the molecular biology of eucaryotic organisms. DNA replication, DNA repair and recombination, DNA rearrangements, and mechanisms regulating gene expression; the interaction of these processes in complex phenomena such as single transduction, cell cycle control, cell differentiation, and cancer. Laboratory includes mammalian cell culture and expression of cloned genes in mammalian cells. Lecture and laboratory. Not open to students with credit for BIO 468. Graded ABCDE. [“”]
