A continuation of the themes of metabolism, catabolism and protein chemistry as it relates to molecular genetics. Major themes include DNA and RNA structure and synthesis, protein synthesis, and functional aspects of genes and their regulation. Students will also examine fatty acid and carbohydrate biosynthetic pathways. Bioinformatics is a unifying principle in a student project centered on a specific genetic disease. Students will work exclusively from primary source materials, and present a ten minute talk and write a major paper on their topic.
