Mechanisms of DNA Damage/Repair and Related Diseases
MB&B 305
Spring 2007 not offered
Crosslisting: MB&B 505

Students taking this course will learn about the sources and consequences of DNA damage and about the biological processes dedicated to DNA repair in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, including humans. Substantial attention will be paid to current research in the DNA repair and mutagenesis field, including biochemical and biophysical approaches aimed at understanding the molecular mechanisms of DNA repair and the diseases associated with defective repair mechanisms. In this context, we will also discuss methodology used to study the workings of biological catalysts.
