GENE 102 Molecular Information in Biological Systems

Together with Biochemistry 101, this course constitutes the first term of a year-long graduate-level sequence in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology. The central theme of the course is the storage, retrieval, modification, and inheritance of biological information, as encoded in the molecular organization of proteins and nucleic acids. Topics include the principles of macromolecular interactions; the structure and function of proteins and nucleic acids; the machineries of transcription, translation, and replication; principles of genetics, genomics, and proteomics; and the control and evolution of biological systems. Note that this course must be taken concurrently with Biochemistry 101 and that students will need to enroll in both courses to complete the Molecular and Cellular Biology Graduate Program requirements for fall term. Not open to undergraduate students.
