External form

1. Successful mastering of courses "Biochemistry", "Biotechnology", "Virology", "Genetics". 2. Be able to independently apply knowledge of molecular biology, biochemistry, microbiology, etc. disciplines, work with scientific and methodological literature. 3. Have basic skills in classifying viruses according to Baltimore.

The educational discipline "Virus Identification" is a component of the educational program for professional training of specialists at the "Bachelor" educational level. The discipline is a basic discipline that covers the issues of basic approaches and methods for identifying and studying viruses of various taxonomic groups. It characterizes the functions of the main biochemical components of both complex and simple viruses. An important place is given to the issues of the structural features of simple and complex viruses, methods and phenomena discovered on viral proteins as models and their application in modern science. Considerable attention is paid to aspects of the biochemical interaction of the virus and the cell and the role of proteins in the penetration of viruses, regulatory and enzymatic properties of viral proteins, unique features of the biochemical structure of viral nucleic acids as carriers of genetic information. The study of virus diagnostic methods, as the basis of general and molecular virology, is relevant for early diagnosis and development of effective means of combating viral infections at different stages of the virus life cycle.
