BIO 6490 - Genetic Screens using RNAi Credit Hour(s): 3 Students will perform original research in the fields of developmental and reproductive biology by using planarian screens to identify genes expressed in the reproductive system and required for development of eggs and sperm. Cloned genes in bacterial vectors will then be used to determine whether genes are expressed in the reproductive system, and perform loss-of-function experiments by RNA-interference (RNAi). This will uncover molecular mechanisms required for developmental function. Restrictions: Must be enrolled in one of the following Levels: Graduate, Medical, Professional.
Level: Graduate Schedule Type(s): Lecture/Lab Combination
