BIOL 435

Regulation of Gene Expression (3,1,0) 3 credits

The heritable information stored in the genome of an organism is expressed in a highly regulated fashion to respond to changes in the environment (prokaryotes and unicellular eukaryotes) or to generate a diverse set of cell types (metazoans). This course examines the molecular mechanisms underlying this regulation of gene expression in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Prerequisite: BIOL 335 and 313
