Document Summary
Bio130h1 s - lecture 2 - introduction to cells, diversity and nucleic acids. Overall objectives of this course: provide knowledge preparation for upper year courses, examine some highlights of the biological revolution underway, discover some connections between basic molecular and cell biology research and its application in our lives. Cellular and genomic diversity: prokaryotes and eukaryotes. ), important structural components, and the bonds that hold them together: dna, nuclear and organellar genomes, chromosomes and chromatin, dna replication and repair. 09/01/2017: rna, general characterization of transcription, rna processing, transcriptome, proteins, translation, post-translation processing, proteomics. Lecture 1: introduction to cells, diversity and nucleic acids: prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, origins, diversity and model systems, information flow, introduction to nucleic acids. Mostly single-celled eubacteria, and archaea (or archaebacteria) Presence of nuclei is defining feature to differentiate prokaryotes and eukaryotes, not single/ multi-cell. Archaea are usually bacteria that live in more extreme environments, e. g. hydrothermal vents.
