This course is centered around the central dogma that genetic information is passed from DNA to RNA to protein. We focus on the different mechanisms that regulate this flow of information in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Specific topics include transcription, translation, chromatin, epigenetics, and non-coding RNA. PREREQUISITES: BIOC 3400.03 or instructor’s consent EXCLUSIONS: BIOC 5404.03 FORMATS: Lecture
