  • Interpret plasmid maintenance and evolution in terms of plasmid genes (poison-antidote mechanism).
  • Compare mobile genetic elements (DNA transposons, retrotransposons) as drivers of genome evolution.
  • Interpret roles of DNA methylation in genome evolution (CpG islands) and gene regulation (epigenetics).
  • Recall DNA replication, transcription, and RNA processing.
  • Compare different techniques of next generation DNA sequencing in terms of advantages/disadvantages and fields of application.
