Control of gene expression: molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation in prokaryotes. Regulation of transcription - initiation in eukaryotes (cis-regulatory elements, general and specific transcription factors). Mechanisms of transcription factor activity regulation. Role of chromatin structure in transcription regulation (covalent modifications in histone tails and chromatin structure remodelling). Methods for analyzing protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions and chromatin structure analysis.
Post-transcriptional modification and processing of pre-mRNA (alternative splicing).
Transport of proteins through secretory pathways and into cell organelles. Co-translational translocation of secretory proteins across the ER membrane. Secretory pathway and vesicular transport. Signal sequences and molecular mechanisms of protein transport in mitochondria and nucleus.
Post-translational modifications of proteins. Protein folding, glycosylation, phosphorylation, proteolysis.

Description of instruction methods: lectures (for 5 or more students), individual consultations (for less than 5 students)
Description of course/module requirements: oral exam and seminar presentation of recent publication/s on the chosen specific subject covered by the course program
