BIOL 3010 - Genetics and Molecular Biology


What makes humans different from fruit flies? Why does your brain have neurons and not liver cells? This course is all about the answer to these questions: It’s the genes! This course covers the chemical make-up of genes, how they’re passed on through generations, how they’re expressed and how that expression is regulated, how disruption in the structure and expression of genes arise and how those disruptions lead to cellular defects and disease. Prerequisite: Must have completed BIOL 2010 or BIOL 2100 or BME 2104 and either CHEM 1410 or CHEM 1810 or CHEM 1610. BIOL 3010 is not repeatable.
