Course content
The discipline "Genetics of Microorganisms" is part of the educational program of professional training of specialists of educational level "Master", the mastering of which creates the basis for mastering such special disciplines as "Molecular Microbiology" and "Microorganisms in modern genetic engineering technologies". It highlights the basic principles of the mechanisms of transmission and realization of genetic information in microorganisms, considers the interaction of bacterial chromosomes and molecular machinery of the host cell with mobile genetic elements and the role of these processes in the evolution of bacterial genomes. Except
another, in the course of the discipline the processes of regulation of cell functioning are considered - from single molecules to global regulatory networks.
