Overview of genetic material DNA assembly and structure/function relationships. DNA replication and gene expression and regulation – Gene cloning and chemical analysis of DNA restriction enzyme – Genetic engineering concept and its applications in the field of microbiology - The basic molecular Biology techniques such as DNA extractions, DNA restriction enzyme, PCR and related techniques.
This course is designed to provide students with a background in molecular biology. The three main objectives of this course are:
1-Students will identify the genetic material, DNA assembly and the relationship between structure and function.
2- Students will understand the gene expression and gene regulation.
3- Students will recognize the approaches used in molecular biology.
