| Aim: Biology from a cellbiological persperctive. The course is continuation on the biochemistry course. The student should acquire basic knowledge about the structure and function of the pro- and eucarytic cells as weill as basic experimental methods within cell biology. Furthermore the course intends to give an introduction in cell- and microbiological methods as well as sterile technology. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) TFBI05 Biology and TFKE25 Biochemistry. Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Organisation: Lectures, laboratory projects and seminars. |
|||
| Course contents: The principal structure of the eucaryotic cell: Organcells, membrane structures, organisation of DNA, other cell components. Mitocondria and chloroplasts. Plasmamembrane: Edification, structure, transport mechanisms over membrane, methods to study membran. Compartmentation: Cytoplasm, endoplasmatic network, golgy-apparatus, peroxysomes and lysosomes. Plant cells. Photosynthesis and gluconeogenes. Control system on cellular level. Evolution on molecular and cellular level. Cellular communication. Cytoskelleton. Cell mobility as well as endo- and exocytos. Cell nucleus, cell division, growth models and differentiated cells. Structure and function of procaryotic cells. Principles of microscopy. Cultivation technology for cells. |
