4 credits · Fall 2026
Molecular Biology (BIO 412) at John Jay College has 1 way to take it in Fall 2026, plus 2 recitation or lab times you pair with a lecture. 2 of 3 sections have an open seat right now.
Professors teaching it: Jason Rauceo and Adele Mitchell.
Compare them below, check the days and times, and add the course to your schedule.
This course meets as a lecture plus a lab. Your schedule needs one time from each, and the schedule builder picks them together.
Prerequisite: ENG 201, BIO 315 and CHE 315
Molecular biology I provides an overview of the current concepts and techniques in molecular biology. Lecture topics include the molecular structure of cells, basic genetic mechanisms, control of gene expression in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, DNA replication, repair and recombination, and protein structure and function. The laboratory experiments introduce basic experimental techniques and research methodology including cell culture, recombinant DNA techniques, transformation, DNA extraction, electrophoresis, Southern and Western Blotting, and DNA sequencing and analysis.

Ordered chillest first. A Chill Rank compares a professor with other CUNY professors on Rate My Professors difficulty, rating and would-take-again; it needs at least 3 ratings. How it works
Seat status as of Oct 4, 4:49 PM ET. Seats can change between refreshes. How fresh is this?
Chill Rank compares professors using Rate My Professors reviews, from Chill to Brutal. What each rank means
You need one lecture and one lab. They can be combined freely, so pick each separately; the schedule builder checks the times together.
