- Course objectives
- At the end of the course students should be able to isolate and analyze genetic material including chromosomal and plasmid DNA.
- Learning outcomes
- Student will be able to:
isolate plasmid DNA of sufficient quality and quantity;
analyze isolated genetic material by basic methods of molecular biology such as restriction endonuclease cleavage and electrophoresis;
prepare sufficient amount of PCR product of the gene of interest;
create the construct of the plasmid vector and the insert of the gene of interest and perform the transformation of competent cells;
use theoretical knowledge of other methods and principles in subsequent laboratory practice - Syllabus
- This course include the practical tasks to learn the basic methods of molecular biology, including: Preparation of basic chemical solutions Isolation of plasmid DNA Determination of DNA concentration and purity Restriction cleavage Electrophoresis PCR Centrifugation
