Biochemistry of Gene Regulation

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: 3FI214

The course uses basic biochemistry/molecular biology knowledge as a starting point and aims to extend your knowledge of mechanisms for gene regulation in eukaryotic cells. Current research problems illustrate different concepts and aspects of gene regulation. After finishing the course you are expected to: * be able to give examples of and describe different types of mechanisms for gene regulation at transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels * be able to use achieved knowledge to explain how drugs and xenobiotics can influence gene expression * be able to describe the molecular background of diseases and therapies where effects on gene expression are of importance * be able to describe different types of methodology used to study gene regulation at different levels and to formulate strategies to apply these to research problems * have gained knowledge of research in the field of gene regulation * have gained knowledge to interpret and analyse advanced literature within the cell biology research field.

Behörighet
