CHEM 4110 - Biochemistry I

4 Credit(s)

A course designed to develop a foundational understanding of biochemical processes through an exploration of molecular structure-function relationships. Three-dimensional structures of biological molecules will be a major focus as well as their physical and chemical properties, and their functions within the cell/tissue/organism. Proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and lipids will be discussed in detail. Membrane structure/signaling/transport processes, and enzyme kinetics and mechanisms will also be covered in this course. A minimum grade of “C” (2.0 or above) must be earned in this course before it can be counted in a physical science major or minor or as a prerequisite for any other course. (Fall, Summer) [Graded (Standard Letter)]
