Hydrocarbons such
as petrol, diesel, etc. contamination of land, and surface water is an extensive
worldwide environmental pollution issue from the reclamation and refining of
crude oil. Oil spills endanger public health, compromise drinking water,
devastate natural resources, and rattle the economy. Biodegradation of the
hydrocarbon occurs when microorganisms, especially bacteria, feed on oil hydrocarbons.
A wide range of potential microorganisms is necessary for a significant
reduction of the oil. Although most biosurfactants are considered secondary
metabolites, some may play crucial roles in the survival of
biosurfactant-producing microorganisms through expedited nutrient transport or microbe-host
interactions or by acting as biocide agents. Biosurfactant roles include
increasing the surface area and bioavailability of hydrophobic water-insoluble
substrates, heavy metal binding, bacterial pathogenesis, quorum sensing, and
biofilm formation. Bacteria produce a wide range of biosurfactants with a higher
rate of hydrocarbon biodegradability, and higher specific activity at extreme
temperatures, salinity, and pH levels that are considered environmentally
compatible with limited toxicity. Such kinds of natural microbial compounds are
biologically surface-active agents and possess many potential activities over
synthetic relatives. Previously microorganisms were considered to be harmful to
the petroleum industry, but now it is well known that microorganisms can be helpful
in terms of oil recovery also. Biosurfactants are characteristically
amphipathic bioactive compounds and contain hydrophobic and hydrophilic
portions. They actually act between fluids of different polarities (oil/water
and water/oil), thus allowing access to hydrophobic substrates and thereby reducing
the surface tension, also enhancing the mobility, bioavailability, and
biodegradation of hydrocarbons. Bioremediation is an encouraging approach to the
hydrocarbon spills problem, as it employs microorganisms to degrade
hydrocarbons from the environment. The ability to degrade recalcitrant
compounds in petroleum has been reported for several bacterial genera isolated
from petroleum-contaminated soil, having the potential for hydrocarbon
degradation.
My research interest is:
Microbial biosurfactants for petroleum degradation

Principles of Genetics , section B
Course: BGE-1206: Principles of Genetics Sessional & Field Work Credit Hour: 01 Year: 1st Term: II Rationale: The course is designed to provide fundamental concepts and practical implications of genetics, inheritance patterns and sex determination mechanisms in animals and plants. Course Objectives: • To apply learned genetical principles in plants like maize, pea plants, tomatoes and laboratory animals like insects (Drosophila spp., honey bee), poultry birds, pigeon, fish, and humans. • Solving conceptual and experimental genetic problems. • To construct pedigree chart. • To construct genetic linkage map. Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs): At the end of the course the students will be able to- • Apply the principles of inheritance as formulated by Mendel. • Apply the principles of extensions to Mendelian inheritance, including multiple allelism, lethal alleles, gene interactions, and sexlinked transmission. • Analyze experimental genetic problem data using learned genetic principles and statistical procedures. • Construct pedigree chart, genetic and linkage maps. • Genetic counseling in the families and societies to eradicate wrong concepts like sole responsibility of the mother for giving birth of female children only, and some genetic diseases like thalassemia, Down’s syndrome, albinism and consanguineous marriage etc. Course Content 1. Working out the problems on Mendelian inheritance pattern. 2. Working out the problems on modified Mendelian inheritance ratios. 3. Working out the problems on two and three point testcross for linkage and crossing over. 4. Working out the problems on linked genes and blood group inheritance. 5. Study of human genetic traits: PTC taste test and survey of human phenotypic characteristics like- holandric gene effect, fingerprint, iris color, colorblindness, albinism and thalassemia. 6. Study of pea and corn genetics: Dominant-recessive characters, observing recombination and segregation pattern of traits after crossing different corn types. Recommended References: 1. Islam, A.

Genetics
Credit
Hours: 03 Year: 2nd Term: II
Rationale: This course is designed to introduce different aspects of
microbial genetics. It starts with basic mechanisms of microbial and phage
genetics which extends to their particular applications.
Course Objectives:
• To familiarize with fundamental organization and processes of the
microbial genome, plasmids and gene transfer.
• To introduce phage genetics and applied microbial genetics in
practice.
Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs):
At the end of the course the students will be able to-
• Learn about the microbial genome, plasmids, and gene transfer
processes e.g. conjugation, transduction and transformation.
• Familiarize with phage genetics, transposable elements and use of
molecular cloning.
Course Content
Section-A

2. Plasmid: Introduction, structure and replication, replication of Col E1,
R6k and conjugative plasmid, control of plasmid replication, plasmid
curing, R-plasmid and antibiotic resistance, mechanism of antibiotic
resistance.
3. Conjugation: F+
and Flike plasmids, tra-operon, sex pili, formation of
hfr strain, gene mapping by conjugation analysis, transfer of nonconjugative plasmid by conjugative plasmid, plasmid mobilization,
and chromosome transfer by cultures of E. coli K-12. Conjugation and
chromosome transfer in other bacteria, conjugal transfer of R-plasmid.
4. Transformation and Electroporation: Competence, uptake of DNA,
transfection. Artificially induced competence. DNA transfer by
electroporation.
5. Transduction: Generalized transduction, experimental evidence, origin
of generalized transducing phages, genetic mapping by different
transductant classes. Specialized transduction, experimental evidence,
origin of specialized transducing phage particle.
