Emphasis on novel roles and mechanisms of newly discovered Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) species including non-coding RNA's; RNA silencing, circular RNA's, RNA guided epigenetic regulation, clustered regulary interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas immunity, genome editing, telomerase biogenesis, riboswitches, exosome, editosome and RNA remodeling. Prerequisites: GENE 301, GENE 302, or GENE 303; BICH 410, BICH 440, BIOL 351, or BIOL 413 Credits 3. 3 Lecture Hours.
