BIOL 111. Genome Regulation by Noncoding RNA This seminar explores regulatory mechanisms governing gene expression, nuclear organization and inheritance. We will specifically explore the ways in which non-protein-coding RNA contributes to gene regulation and the maintenance of genomic integrity, including the molecular bases for a variety of human pathologies such as cancer and aging. Through extensive reading of primary literature, students can expect to gain an in-depth understanding of the properties, functions and evolution of noncoding RNAs in critical genomic regulatory processes and current applications to human disease research. Prerequisite: BIOL 010, any Group I Intermediate Course, BIOL 024, or BIOL 025 with permission of instructor. Prerequisite Intermediate Course sucessfully completed with a grade of B (3.0) or better. Natural sciences and engineering. 1 credit. For Spring 2025 only: 2 credit w/ research component. Spring 2025. Carone. Catalog chapter: Biology Department website: http://www.swarthmore.edu/biology
