Gene Technology - Nano (GentekN)
Course content
The course includes:
- A thourough review of gene technology methods
- Cellular control of macromolecular biosynthesis with emphasis on the experimental basis
- Generation of genome- and cDNA libraries
- Screening of libraries including expression cloning in Xenopus oocytes and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
- Genome-, trancriptome- and proteome analysis
- Production of transgenic animals
- Heterologous expression in bacteria, yeast/fungi, insect cells, mammalian cells and whole animals
BSc Programme in Molecular Biomedicine
BSc Programme in Nanoscience
Knowledge:
The student will obtain detailed knowledge on
- gene technology methods
- cellular control of macromolecular biosynthesis with emphasis on the experimental basis
- generation of genome- and cDNA libraries
- screening of libraries including expression cloning in Xenopus oocytes and Saccharomyces cerevisiae
- genome-, trancriptome- and proteome analysis
- production of transgenic animals
- heterologous expression in bacteria, yeast/fungi, insect cells, mammalian cells and whole animals
Skills:
The student gains core competences within modern gene technology.
The degree of confidence with modern gene technology/molecular
biology obtained during the course allows him/her to design gene
technology/molecular biology experiments based upon known gene
technological methods. The student obtains experience with critical
interpretation and treatment of original molecular biology data.
Competences:
The two most important competences obtained by the student are to
comprehend scientific data and put them in a
genetechnology/molecular biology context and to use the
genetechnology toolbox to solve real genetechnological/molecular
biology problems.
