03-442 Molecular Biology Of Eukaryotes

Units: 9.0 Department: Biological Sciences Prerequisites: 03-441 Cross-listed: 03-742 Related URLs: http://www.cmu.edu/bio The structure and expression of eukaryotic genes are discussed, focusing on model systems from a variety of organisms including yeast,flies, worms mice,humans,and plants. Topics discussed include (1)genomics,proteomics, and functional proteomics, (2) control of gene expression at the level of transcription of mRNA from DNA,splicing of pre-mRNA,export of spliced mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, and translation of mRNA, and (3)chromosome structure, including origins of replication, centromeres, telomeres, transposons, and regulated chromosomal rearrangements.
