CHEM3550 - 02A - Biochemistry - Lab

This course starts with structural descriptions of macromolecules, with particular focus on proteins and the structure/function relationships. Enzymes and the principles of catalysis are discussed, followed by a comprehensive survey of the pathways and regulation of metabolism, including glycoses, the Krebs Cycle, electron transport, as well as lipid, carbohydrate, and protein metabolism. Laboratory exercises supporting the understanding of the lecture topics will be included, with a focus on good laboratory practice.
