This course will cover a range of molecular approaches
towards understanding the process of cell proliferation. We
will discuss how the cell division cycle is executed and
regulated in systems from yeast to humans. The topics to be
discussed will include: cell-division-cycle mutants in
yeast, cyclin-dependent kinase as cell cycle regulators, DNA
replication and DNA damage checkpoints, and oncogenes and
tumor suppressors.
MAJOR READINGS
Review articles and current journal
articles.
Text: THE CELL CYCLE by Murray and Hunt
