This course is a rigorous introduction to the study of protein molecules and their role as catalysts in the cell. Topics include general principles of protein folding, protein structure-function correlation, enzyme kinetics and mechanism, carbohydrate and lipid biochemistry, and metabolic pathways (catabolic and anabolic) and their interaction and cross-regulation. Biological transformation of energy is considered in light of the principles of thermodynamics.
This course is limited to Biochemistry majors only.; Prereq: BIOL-230, and CHEM-302, and CHEM-231.; Coreq: BIOCH-318.
Multiple required components--lab and/or discussion section. To register, submit requests for all components simultaneously.
