Oral examination. The test is in an interview of about 30 minutes during the period the student has to answer a series of questions (5-6) including most of the topics covered during the course. Each vote takes into account the acquired knowledge (50%), the student's ability to integrate different concepts and concepts and insert them correctly in contextual problems (30%), and the ability to offer a clear language, correct to the contents (20%). teacher profile teaching materials
THE COURSE CONCERNS THE GENERAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE MOLECULAR MECHANISMS WHICH REGULATE THE BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES OCCURRING WITHIN A CELL, WITH PARTICULAR EMPHASYS ON GENETIC STRUCTURE, ORGANIZATION AND EXPRESSION OF PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC ORGANISMS. FURTHERMORE, THE SUBJECT TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION THE MOST UPDATED MOLECULAR BIOLOGY EXPERIMENTAL PROCEUDURES UTILIZED IN BASIC AND APPLIED RESEARCH. THE TEACHING PROGRAM IS ORGANIZED AS FOLLOWS: GENOME ANATOMY, TRANSCRIPTOMES AND PROTEOMES; GENOME ACCESSIBILITY; TRANSCRIPTION INITIATION COMPLEX; RNA SYNTHESES AND MATURATION; PROTEOME SYNTHESES AND MATURATION; GENOME SEQUENCING; GENOME REPLICATION; DNA REPAIR SYSTEMS; GENETIC RECOMBINATION; GENETIC ENGINEERING AND DNA RECOMBINANT TECHNIQUES.

Programme
THE COURSE OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY IS PART OF THE TEACHING ACTIVITIES OF THE DEGREE COURSE IN LIFE SCIENCES. THE COURSE THROUGH FRONTAL LESSONS AND LABORATORY TRAINING AIMS TO PROVIDE THE GENERAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE MOLECULAR MECHANISMS WHICH REGULATE THE BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES OCCURRING WITHIN A CELL, WITH PARTICULAR EMPHASYS ON GENETIC STRUCTURE, ORGANIZATION AND EXPRESSION OF PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC ORGANISMS. TOOLS WILL BE GIVEN TO UNDERSTAND THE MAIN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY STRATEGIES AND TECHNIQUES UTILIZED TO STUDY GENES AND GENOMES. FURTHERMORE, THE SUBJECT TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION THE MOST UPDATED MOLECULAR BIOLOGY EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES UTILIZED IN BASIC AND APPLIED RESEARCH. THE STUDENTS WILL GET ACQUAINTED WITH THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGES AND METHODOLOGICAL SKILLS THAT WILL ENABLE THEM TO APPLY THE CORRECT STUDY TO SOLVE SPECIFIC PROBLEMS IN THE FIELD OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY.THE COURSE CONCERNS THE GENERAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE MOLECULAR MECHANISMS WHICH REGULATE THE BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES OCCURRING WITHIN A CELL, WITH PARTICULAR EMPHASYS ON GENETIC STRUCTURE, ORGANIZATION AND EXPRESSION OF PROKARYOTIC AND EUKARYOTIC ORGANISMS.
