Lernergebnisse
Kompetenzen
(*)Students understand the epigenetic mechanisms underlying X chromosome inactivation and Barr body formation. They can apply immunofluorescence (IF) and RNA-FISH techniques to detect key molecular markers and analyze the results.
Fertigkeiten Kenntnisse
(*)
  • Identifying and explaining epigenetic regulatory mechanisms involved in X chromosome inactivation.
  • Performing immunofluorescence (IF) staining to detect histone modifications.
  • Conducting RNA-FISH staining to visualize long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) XIST.
  • Preparing slides for fluorescence microscopy and analyzing results.
  • Applying experimental techniques in molecular biology to study gene regulation.
(*)
  • Epigenetic regulation of X chromosome inactivation.
  • The role of long non-coding RNA XIST in gene silencing.
  • Mechanisms of histone modification in chromatin regulation.
  • Principles and applications of immunofluorescence (IF) staining.
  • RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (RNA-FISH).
Beurteilungskriterien (*)A minimum 75% attendance is required. Students need to write a scientific report describing brief experiment procedures and results (1-2 pages). The positive assessment is "participated successfully", the negative assessment is "participated without success".
