An exploration of genes and genomes that highlights the connections between molecular biology, genetics, cell biology and evolution. An exploration of genomes and genes that highlights the connections between molecular biology, genetics, cell biology, and evolution. You will analyze the principal experimental findings that serve as the basis for our current understanding of topics in genetics (such as DNA, RNA and protein structure and function, gene organization and networks, gene expression and regulation, and the origins and evolution of molecular mechanisms). You will examine the computational tools and rapidly expanding databases that have advanced contemporary biology.Prerequisites: BIO 132, or permission of the instructor. BIO 130 is a recommended prerequisite but not required. Laboratory (BIO 231) is recommended but not required.
