Detail předmětu
Special molecular biotechnology
FCH-DA_SMBAk. rok: 2020/2021
The course focuses on the use of molecular biotechnology in the preparation of transgenic organisms for the isolation of biotechnologically important proteins. Attention is paid to the use of modern molecular biology and biophysical methods for their use in the production of significant proteins and the study of their interactions with DNA.

Způsob a kritéria hodnocení
The results of the study are verified by colloquium (S.E.R. Art. 34 of the BUT Brno), ie a discussion about the subject matter connected with the preparation of a written work dealing with the specified topic of the subject in the range of about 10 text pages; the debate takes about 30 minutes.
