Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The mechanisms underlying the growth and division of the prokaryotic cell have been mostly studied in model bacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis). After recapitulating what is known about the reproduction mode of bacterial models, I will present how non-model prokaryotes - such as multicellular bacteria or obligate symbionts - grow and divide.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Active participation and exam in presence with no permitted materials.
Additional exam dates are also possible upon request.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

Participants should familiarise with the molecular mechanisms underlying chromosome biology and reproductive biology of non-model microorganisms (including obligate bacterial symbionts and pathogens) and archaea. More specifically: chromatin of non-model bacteria and archaea, chromosome segregation in non-model bacteria and archaea; cell growth, cell division, cell shape, cell polarity in non-model bacteria and archaea.
The exam is in person and consists of 5 questions (each question is 4 points).
19-20 points: very good
16-18 points: good
13-15 points: satisfactory
10-12 points: sufficient
