Tematika

Students will learn the structure and the functions of the eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. They will study the similarities and differences of them in order to understand how prokaryotes of yeast cells can be used for biotechnological purposes. We will study the basics of plant cells, as they serve as tools in biotechnology. Mammalian cells are studied in many aspects: structural components, protein transport, secretion, endocytosis, apoptosis, tumor generation, and using them as biotechnological tools. Students have to understand how cells are connecting and communication with each other, how cell signaling pathways are operation, as they are targets of many drugs.
