BIO 3039 RECOMBINANT DNA TECHNOLOGY
This one-semester laboratory course focuses on the central questions in modern molecular biology, how cells work in molecular detail. The study of genetics is now facilitated by a collection of recombinant DNA techniques designed for direct manipulation and chemical analysis of the genetic material which controls the cell. The specific techniques used in this course include the specific cleavage of DNA with restriction endonucleases, nucleic acid hybridization, gel electrophoresis, and DNA cloning. This laboratory course is the complement to BIO 3030 Molecular Cell Biology and replaces the Genetics courses.
