What will I learn?
Explore the journey from DNA to protein through transcription, mRNA processing, and translation. Master codon analysis, point mutations, and their effects on proteins. Develop skills in designing expression constructs, performing western blots, immunofluorescence, basic mass spectrometry, and applying controls to design, run, and interpret molecular experiments effectively.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Decode DNA and mRNA sequences by mapping codons, start and stop sites, plus mutations swiftly.
- Predict how mutations affect proteins by linking nucleotide changes to structure and function.
- Design expression constructs for 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 of results.
