Learning Outcomes of UE

The aim of this course is to provide students with general notions of molecular cell biology, allowing them to deal with more complex notions on the structure and function of proteins, with a particular emphasis on the internal organization of the cell, the membrane transport, molecular mechanisms of intracellular protein sorting and of vesicular tranfficking, as well as of the proteasome degradation of proteins.

Content of UE

<u>The following themes will be approached:</u>
Universal characteristics of the cells ;
Catalysis and the use of energy by cells ;
Membrane structure and transport across cell membranes ;
Internal organization of the eukaryote cell; Intracellular compartments and protein sorting; 
Intracellular vesicular traffic;
Protein synthesis, assembling and destruction.
