Course purpose

Aim: This course aims to develop students foundation in Genetics, and is the beginning of a series of courses on
Genetics.
Objectives: By the end of this course, students should be equipped with knowledge concerning the mechanisms ofprocesses related to how genetic information is inherited rigidly and flexibly from generation to generation.
Students are expected to become confident at using appropriate scientific terminology, be able to understand andexplain the studied genetics concepts, and be able to analytically manipulate this information.
履修要件

Prerequisite

Strongly recommended to have completed Fundamentals of Biology 1

到達目標

Goal

At the end of this course students will be able to clearly understand and explain in appropriate scientific terms DNAand chromosome structure, as well as the detailed mechanisms of DNA replication, DNA repair and DNArecombination.

授業内容

Content

1. DNA and RNA structure
Students will learn about detailed polynucleotide structure ad its relation to genetic processes.
2. Chromosomes, chromatin, and the nucleosome
Students will learn how DNA is structurally organized in the cell and how this structure is dynamically maintained
and altered throughout cells' life.
3. Replication of DNA
Students will learn the detailed mechanism of DNA replication, in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
4. Mutability and repair of DNA
Students will learn what causes changes in DNA and the cellular mechanisms for DNA repair.
5. Genetic recombination
Students will learn in depth about the different types of DNA recombination mechanisms, including examples of thesemechanisms in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
Instructions for out-of-class study: This course require students to prepare for each class in advance by reading theassigned material and summarizing it before class.
