The course is designed to develop students’ knowledge of gene expression, gene regulation, and recombinant DNA Technology. The emphasis in this course will be put in the following areas: DNA structure and function; DNA supercoiling; chromatin and higher order structure and organization in eukaryotic DNA; RNA transcription in prokaryotes and eukaryotes; eukaryotic gene regulation with respect to chromatin; gene promoters; prokaryotic and eukaryotic gene regulatory mechanisms of recombination; DNA amplification and analysis technology; recombinant DNA technology and its applications including protein over expression.
