一、課程說明(Course Description)
The objective of this course is to understand the RNA virology and its
applications in biotechnology such as vaccine development. The general
principles and procedures of RNA viruses, positive or negative or double
strand RNA genomes, will be lectured regarding the molecular mechanisms
related to virus attachment, penetration, uncoating, replication, assemby and
egress, as well as the pathogenesis, treatment and prevention. The
participating students will be expected to report recent literature given by
the lecturer.
本課程以了解RNA病毒及其應用於生物科技如疫苗研發上。主要闡述單股正向 單股負向及雙股RNA
病毒之分子病毒機制如貼附複製組裝與釋出及其致病機轉與治療及預防各方面知識。同時培養對最新期
刊發表研究具分析與批判的能力。
