This lecture will be a follow-up lecture of the basic microbiology lecture (Vertiefungsmodul) which will deepen the knowledge of microbial cell biology and physiology and focus on molecular and physiological aspects of adapation of microorganisms to diverent habitats, microbial ecology, diversity of microbial metabolism, microbial taxonomy, protein export mechanisms, biofilms, microbial pathogens, pathogenicity and antibiotics resistance mechanism and the various mechanisms of regulation of gene expressions. In addition, modern methods of genomics and functional genomics (e.g. DNA-sequencing, metagenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics) will be introduced that are used today to study microbial physiology at the global scale.
The students will get a deep understanding of microbial physiology and the use of molecular methods in molecular mircobiology. At the end of this lecture and the seminar the students are able understand scientific papers which will be practiced during the seminar.
The module exam will be an oral examination colloquium in the last week of the course (15th Nov 2024). Schließen
