MEDICAL BIOLOGY AND GENETICS

Course Description

In the Medical Biology and Genetics courses, there will be a focus on the medical biology entrance, history, biomolecules and will begin giving information about the common characteristics of living things. The general characteristics of the cells after the basics, cell organization, the cell membrane and its properties, structure and function of cell organelles, cytoskeleton, cell by cell metabolism issues will be discussed in detail. Genetic material to the subject structure, function and DNA - RNA structures, gene organization, chromosomal structure, DNA replication, transcription and translation will continue through the cell cycle and division. In addition, chromosomal structure and number of abnormalities, mutations, polymorphisms, DNA damage and repair mechanisms, cell senescence, apoptosis and carcinogenesis mechanism, will be described Mendelian genetics and Mendelian inheritance pattern of foreign inheritance issues. Finally, the information will be given about diet and disease related genes. The issues will be discussed as a theoretical issue, supported by the consolidation of laboratory applications.
