GS040123   Eukaryotic Gene Expression

Takada, Shinako. Three semester hours. Spring annually. Prerequisite: none

This is an advanced molecular genetics course in which current results and theories, based on primary journal articles, will be discussed. Topics involved in gene expression in a broad sense will be covered. Those include chromatin, transcriptional regulation, transcription factor structures, splicing, protein synthesis/degradation, cell cycle/cell division control, apoptosis, DNA replication and repair. This course fulfills GSBS molecular area breadth requirement (alternative course) and Genes and Development Program requirement.
