Aim of the lecture is to introduce students to problems of prokaryotic genetics. Mechanisms of natural changes, transfer and plasticity of genetic information of bacteria will be described and explained. The structure and properties of basic groups of plasmids, bacteriophages and transposition elements will be discussed. Emphasis will be placed on the incidence of these mobile elements in clinically important bacteria genera.
Exercises should complement lectured topics and practice of specific examples.
