Course objectives
The aim of this course is to provide students a molecular-genetic insight into various areas of human genetics. At the end of this course, students should be familiar with the structure of the human genome and principles of methods used in its analysis, with the use of information gained under the Human Genome Project framework, and with molecular aspects of human evolution. They should also understand molecular principles of genetic diseases in human, as well as basics of pharmacogenetics and gene therapy.
Syllabus
  • Structure and expresion of human genome. Multigene families and repetitive DNA. Polymorphism in human DNA; detection and screening of mutation in human genome. Gene identification and isolation methods. Molecular aspects of human evolution. Human Genome Project, history and principles of human genome mapping. Somatic mutations and cancer. Complex diseases. Pharmacogenetics. Gene therapy.
