Description
From the simplest bacterium to multicellular mammals, each living organism shares vital mechanisms to repair its DNA. In this lab course, we will explore the structure of DNA, mechanisms of DNA damage, consequences of un-repaired DNA damage, and how cells repair DNA. It is recommended that BIOL 2020, BIOL 2030, BIOL 3510 or CHEM 3510 is completed prior to taking this course.
