【Course Objectives】

In this course, students are expected to learn about gene structure and mechanisms for gene expression. The purpose of this course is for students to understand the most fundamental principles and concepts necessary for studying life science.

【Course Contents】

This course aims to provide students understanding of basic principles and concepts that constitute molecular biology. Specifically, students learn about gene structure, mechanisms for gene expression, and replication of genetic materials at the molecular level. At the beginning, students are introduced to genes' concept and structure. Next, the structure of DNA and RNA is discussed, using mainly prokaryotes and bacteriophages as models. Students learn about transcription and replication of genes and genomic DNA, as well as mechanisms that regulate these processes. The course refers to molecular biology's historical background and enables students to cultivate deeper understanding of phenomena studied by the field as a whole. The course uses Molecular Biology of the Gene by Watson et al. as a reference.
