Description: The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the core concepts of cellular biology that needed to succeed in upper-division biology courses. The overall theme for this course is how structure implies function for macromolecules and cells. Course topics include: cellular and sub-cellular structures and functions, DNA and RNA structure and function, protein synthesis and structure, enzyme function, metabolic pathways, and membrane function.

• GenMAPP Prostate Cancer Exercise Part 1
  • This is the link to the data file, <Hs_ED_ProstateCancer_edited.txt>, mentioned in step 3 of the protocol.
• GenMAPP Prostate Cancer Exercise Part 2 (MAPPFinder)
  • This part of the exercise can be completed independently of Part 1 by downloading the GenMAPP Expression Dataset <Hs_ED_ProstateCancer_20060130.gex> from GenMAPP.org using the Data Acquisition Tool from within the GenMAPP program.
  1. Launch GenMAPP.
  2. Select the menu item, Data > Download Data from GenMAPP.org
  3. Expand the "Expression Datasets" folder, and click on "Homo sapiens" to see the file.
  4. Check the box next to the filename.
  5. Click the Start button to download.
