Tutorials for the week of Feb 11-15

Hi T53/51 and T59 students!

Your next tutorials will deal mainly with eukaryotic genes and how they can be regulated. We will go through everything you need to know  about this (all the elements of the system, how they interact and how we can study them).

Please go over your notes....we'll go through all the concepts and information needed to answer the assigned questions (although we won't necessarily do all the questions as they are in the book.).

For those who have the 8th edition of the book (green cover), the eukaryotic gene regulation stuff is  in the second part of chapter 10, and the assigned questions correspond to your chapter 10 # 13, 14, 29, 23 and 30. 

Please let me know ASAP if you have any particular requests (conecpts or questions to go over, etc).

Have a good weekend

Pam

hi, altho its kinda late to talk about midterm but i was just wondering why they had to use Sal, which is so easy to be confused with Sau, out of so many restriction enzymes, it made me spending like 30 minutes on restriction map question which would've been so easily solved when "sal", not "sau" was taken into account..
I feel like all my studies when into vain..sigh

I think it's a perfect time to talk about the midterm and you guys should talk about it!
As TAs, we are pretty much powerless (we didn't make the questions and we didn't make the marking schemes), but your feedback is very informative in that we can at least make the profs aware of possible problems with their final's questions!

(Also, in a very selfish way, I am personally interested in your feedback so that, if/when I'll be in a position of making an exam, I'll be able to design it better).

I have no idea why they picked Sau and Sal, but I can guarantee that your studies were not in vain.

Cheers
