Molecular and Cellular Biology II
updated date : 06, April 2021
Course title Credit and Type:
Molecular and Cellular Biology II lecture, 2Credits
Course description/type:
Basic features of molecular and cellular biology will be lectured and discussed. These include regulation of transcription and translation, protein structure and function, post-translational modification, structure and dynamics of chromosome, structure and dynamics of cell, organelles and cytoskeleton, metabolism, protein traffic, signal transduction and cell imaging.

Expected learning outcome and objectives:
1. Elucidation of biological phenomena in a molecular level
2. Understanding methods to analyze in a molecular level
3. Elucidation of biological phenomena in a cellular level
4. Understanding methods to analyze in a cellular level
Grading policy and criteria:
The grades will be A, B, C, and D, which are determined by the quality of the paper, which must be submitted to the lecturer by the provided deadline. The subject(s) of the paper must be one of the four important aspects that are presented in the above Course Objectives.
Classroom location:
Oral and Zoom:
Lecture Room (B202) or Seminar Room (B301), 2nd or 3rd floor of Library in the National Institute of Genetics / Seminar Room 4 (131) 1st floor in the National Institute for Basic Biology
languages used in the classroom:
English
Lecture materials and readings:
Molecular Biology of the Cell, B. Alberts et al., Garland Science.
Genes, B. Lewin, Prentice Hall.
Notes:
It is desirable to have the basic knowledge corresponding to the lecture of Molecular and Cellular Biology I (E-learning), but it is not mandatory. It is given as an oral lecture, which will be provided in English.
