Lehrveranstaltungen:
Integrated course, combining lectures seminar and experimental work
(in total: 15 SWS, only in winter term!), consisting of A1 to A5!
Important: all 5 parts of the course have to be attended (attendance in lab courses is compulsory)!
- A1: Recombinant proteins
partly taught in German (30%), therefore only electable by students
with beginners level German and advanced level
English.
- A2: Techniques in molecular genetics
- A3: Immunochemistry
taught either in English or German
- A4: Structural biology
- A5: Plant molecular biology
Inhalt:
A1: Recombinant DNA Polymerases are overproduced, purified, and biochemically characterized. Recombinant epitope-tagged eukaryotic transcription factors are purified by immunoprecipitation and detected with various antibodies. Lectures/seminars cover methods of recombinant protein expression, antibody detection, polymerase chain reaction, differences between pro- and eukaryotic gene expression. Modern chromatographic and analytical techniques used in protein purification.
A2: Handling of plasmid DNA, ligation, bacterial transformation, purification of genomic DNA and RNA from animal cells, transfection of animal cell lines, GFP reporters, Fluorescence activated cell sorting, genetic fingerprinting. Lectures/seminars cover these techniques.
A3: Investigation of high-molecular effective ingredients of anti-influenza vaccines and mistletoe plants. Isolation and analysis of personal IgG-fraction (SDSPAGE): Estimation of anti-influenza-antibodies (Dot-Blot, Western-Blot, ELISA). Purification of proteinaceous content from mistletoe herb and identification of mistletoe lectines (ELLA)
A4: Structural biology (taught in english): Protein structure determination. Major steps in protein X-ray crystallography will be performed including protein crystallization, symmetry and analysis of electron density maps, phase determination using molecular replacement, refinement and validation of the structural model. The course starts with an UNIX/LINUX introduction, the operating system used by the computer programs. Lectures and seminars cover in detail all steps of the X-ray structure determination process and highlight the application spectrum of this technique.
A5: Plant molecular biology (taught in english) Detection of reporter genes in transgenic tobacco, immunological localization of a protein in Plantago major, transient expression of a reporter gene in onion and tobacco, fluorescence microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Lectures and seminars cover methods of plant gene technology, agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation, detection of genes, RNA and proteins, importance of genetically engineered plants in science and industry.
Lernziele und Kompetenzen:
The students are able
to understand the fundamentals of selected topics in molecular biology
to utilize the modern experimental techniques in molecular genetics
to determine protein structures using X-ray crystallography
to prepare and to characterize of different samples (depending on chosen lab course) using appropriate experimental techniques and methods
to interpret and to critically summarize experimental results in written form (lab report)
to judge and to discuss in oral form their research results in the field of drug discovery in comparison to recent publications
to work in smaller research teams (team ability)
