Learning outcomes
|
Subject content is focused on description of genome structure. Emphasis is paid above all to methodology how to obtain information about genome structure with focus on parallel sequencing methods, genetic mapping, annotation of genes and other functional elements, databases of DNA sequences, description of chromosome structure and its parts. Functional parts of genome: coding sequences and repetitive sequences. Comparative genomics with focus on model organisms: Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, Arabidopsis thaliana a Homo sapiens. DNA polymorfismus. Methods of whole genome and whole transcriptome approaches: Affymetrix, RNAseq, ChiP-Seq.
