This course deals with techniques used to study gene expression in bacteria. The participants will learn these techniques by studying current research topics of the groups involved in teaching. Methods to address the following questions will be applied:

- Determination of the promoter activity
- Determination of the stability of prokaryotic mRNA
- Determination of the activity of translational initiation signals
- Regulation of translation by non-coding RNAs and proteins
- Techniques for the analysis of protein-RNA interactions
- Techniques for the analysis of protein-protein interactions
- Purification of recombinant proteins to homogeneity

Assessment and permitted materials

Compulsory attendance; the evaluation consists of different performances: active participation and results obtained, written report, theoretical knowledge including final exam (the percentage of the subgrades will be announced by the course leader); each of the subgrades must have a positive evaluation.
