CHE 3336 Biochemistry II

A sequential year course focusing on the study of living systems at the molecular and cellular level. An understanding of life's recurring strategies is developed, including: 1) how the chemical structures of macromolecules (proteins and carbohydrates) relate to their biological function, 2) how enzyme mechanisms and energy flow catalyze reactions, 3) how interrelated metabolic pathways are regulated and 4) how biological systems store, transfer and regulate energy and information. Students acquire experience in reading and presenting the primary scientific literature.
