Develop skills
- Decode DNA and mRNA sequences by mapping codons, start and stop sites, plus mutations.
- Predict how mutations affect protein structure and function from nucleotide changes.
- Design expression constructs by cloning, tagging, and validating wild-type versus mutant genes.
- Perform and analyse protein assays including western blots, immunofluorescence, and basic mass spec.
- Plan precise experiments with proper controls, troubleshooting, and clear reporting.
