A molecular study of mutagenesis and DNA repair. Topics include DNA structure perturbations, spontaneous and induced mutagenesis, the genetics and biochemistry of DNA repair and recombination, and the role of mutagens in the development of genetic disease and cancer. Also listed as BIOC 4202. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 3104 and one of: BIOL 2200/BIOC 2200, BIOL 2201, BIOC 3102 (may be taken concurrently) or permission of the Department.Lectures two hours a week and workshop two hours a week.
