| CHEM 323 - Introduction to Biochemistry (3). |
|
Description: This course provides an overview of the main aspects of biochemistry by relating molecular interactions to their effects on the organism as a whole, especially as related to human biology. The function of macromolecules is addressed through a discussion of their hierarchical structure, and a study of their assembly into complexes responsible for specific biological processes. Topics addressing protein function include enzyme kinetics, cellular signaling strategies, the characterization of major metabolic pathways, and their interconnection into tightly regulated networks.
Prerequisite: CHEM301 or CHEM310 with a Grade of C or above.
Notes: Offered in spring.
