Class Objectives
/Class Outline This class aims to understand the basics of plant molecular biology. This class introduces exciting findings in the plant genome, gene expression, and plant morphogenesis in the first half of the course. This class presents environmental response, cell structure, and differentiation in plant and gene expression analysis in the last half.

Class Schedule 1.Plant genome science I
     Genome, Ploidy, Synteny, Chromatin structure
2.Plant genome science II
     Homologous gene, repetitive sequence
3.Plant genome science III
     C-value, Transposon, Organelle genome
4. Plant gene expression
     Transcription, RNA polymerase, Gene structure, cis-Elemen, RNA processing, Gene expression in organelle
5. Regulation of plant gene expression
     Transcriptional factor, Chromatin modification
6. Molecular mechanisms of morphogenesis in plants
      flower development, meristem, ABC model
7. Midterm Examination (Fujikawa, Tanaka)

8. Photosynthesis in leaves
      Gas exchange model, FvCB model, Limitations of photosynthesis
9. Plant cell structure 1
      Mitochondria, chloroplasts, vacuole
10. Plant cell structure 2
      Cell wall
11. Plant cell differentiation
      Root hair differentiation, microRNA
12. Responses to environmental stresses in plants
      Responses to environmental stresses, Stress-responsive gene expression
13. Expression analysis in plants
      Quantitative expression analysis, Comprehensive expression analysis, Tissue- and Cell-specific expression analysis
14. Methodology of expression analysis
      Handling of nucleic acids, DNA sequencing, Realtime-PCR
15. Final Examination(Tominaga J, Tominaga R, Ueda)

Examination and report assignment as needed(depending on the professor)
(a student, absent over 5 times, is not subject to an acedemic assessment)

This above schedule may be changed depending on the progress of lectures.
