  • BIOL 27000: Cell Structure And Function

    2.00 Credits
    Purdue University-Main Campus

    Credit Hours: 2.00. The underlying principle of BIOL 270 is that an accurate understanding of cells relies on the ability to describe the workings of the cell's components in quantitative, spatial or systems terms. The course begins with a treatment of the physical properties of eukaryotic cells and their components. We then proceed to how these components and the rules that govern them give rise to more complex cellular systems. The course is divided into three main subject areas: 1) First Principles, a review of relevant physical principles of thermodynamics and descriptions of the major classes of macromolecules of the cell; 2) Synthesis and bioenergetics, a treatment of how cells synthesize macromolecules and construct organelles, how they harvest energy from the environment, and how they couple energetically favorable to unfavorable events; 3) Cellular systems, which includes signal transduction, the cell cycle, the cytoskeleton and cell motility, and cell-cell interaction. An extensive course web site provides support for lectures, study aids, and updated course information.

  • BIOL 27100: Laboratory In Cell Structure And Function

    2.00 Credits
    Purdue University-Main Campus

    Credit Hours: 2.00. Students are introduced to the molecular biology of the eukaryotic cell. In the first section students study topics in protein biology and biochemistry such as protein structure, function, isolation, molecular evolution, and the detection and molecular basis of human disease. Techniques used for these experiments include electrophoresis, chromatography, and the Western blot procedure. In the second section students localize enzymes in plant and animal cells, perform cell fractionation procedures, and study the properties of specific cell-surface receptor. Experiments of the properties and structure of DNA are presented in the final section of the course. These exercises stress the organization and complexity of the genome, gene function and regulation, and the structure of the eukaryotic chromosome. Techniques include restriction nuclease mapping and basic DNA cloning techniques. Students also carry out an independent research project of their own design.

  • BIOL 28000: Genetics And Molecular Biology

    2.00 Credits
    Purdue University-Main Campus

    Credit Hours: 2.00. Course covers basic principles of molecular and classical genetics and introduces topics in current genetics research. Molecular genetics includes DNA structure and function, the organization of chromosomes, RNA function, the genetic code, mutations on the molecular level including transposable genetic elements. Coverage of genetic engineering DNA technology, cloning techniques and applications of recombinant technology both in diagnostic and industry. Basic regulatory mechanisms in eukaryotes and prokaryotes, as well as current developments (cancer genes, imprinting, etc.) are also discussed. Topics in classical genetics include: Mendelian transmission genetics, independent segregation, linkage and gene mapping, pedigree analysis, sex linkage, sex determination, and gross chromosome abnormalities.
