COURSE AIM:
The aim of the course is to provide students with the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary for the study of genomes, transcriptomes, and proteomes, to understand their interrelationships, and to apply modern analytical methods for the interpretation of biological functions and evolutionary processes.
COURSE CONTENT:
LECTURES
1-2) Genome, transcriptome and proteome definition
3) Genome mapping and sequencing
4) Gene mapping and function, genome availability
5) Transcription in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms
6) Protein synthesis in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms
7) Genome replication
8-9) Methods for genome analysis
10-11) Methods for transcriptome and/or specific transcript analysis
12-13) Methods for proteome and/or specific protein analysis
14-15) Genome evolution
SEMINARS:
1) Analysis of a historical moment in which certain scientific discovery was made, enabling today's understanding of the genome, and the life of the scientist responsible for that discovery (one research for each student)
2) Presentation of one original scientific article relevant to one of the topics covered during lectures (one article for each student)
