BIOC 301
Biochemistry I, part 1
Biochemistry I and Biochemistry II provide a comprehensive survey of biochemistry at the graduate level. Biochemistry I will cover the structure and function of biological macromolecules as well as topics on metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. The course will also cover current methods used in biochemistry and medicine.
This is the first part of a two-part course. Registration is required separately for each part of the course.
Prerequisites
The above course(s) or equivalent. Solid understanding of organic chemistry or permission from the instructor.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand protein structure and thermodynamics
- Describe protein-protein interaction and structure-function relationships in biochemical systems
- Name structure and function of carbohydrates and lipids, aspects of central metabolism
