An introduction to the mechanisms, themes and patterns that are present in the molecular biology of organisms ranging from bacteria to humans. The basic applications of molecular biology to disciplines such as medical microbiology, criminology, genetic fingerprinting, genome sequencing, and bioinformatics will be discussed. NOTE: MBIO 1410 is intended for students outside of Microbiology and Biological Sciences who require an introduction to molecular biology, such as those with interests in bioinformatics, biophysics, or bioengineering. Although this course may be used as an elective in an Arts or Science program, it may not be used to meet a program requirement for an Honours or Major program in Microbiology. Not available to students who have previously obtained credit in, or are currently enrolled in the following courses: the former MBIO 2410, BIOL 2500, BIOL 2501, MBIO 2020, MBIO 2021, the former MBIO 2100, MBIO 2101, MBIO 3410 or MBIO 3411 [3 credits]
