BIO 410 - Cell and Molecular Physiology

Institution:

Thomas University

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisites: CHM107. The organization and function of cellular structures in animal, plant, and microbial systems. Emphasis on the molecular basis of cellular energetics, transport, motility, growth, and mechanisms of the regulation of nucleic acid and protein synthesis. 3 hours lecture, 3 hours laboratory. teach science in general and the discipline of biochemistry in particular. Students will get involved in the research of current topics in biochemistry, in designing the strategies needed to present their findings to their undergraduate classmates, and in writing papers that describe their work as both researchers and teachers. Different science methods and various technologies that pertain to teaching biochemistry will be used in the classroom. This course is also intended to provide students with a general background in amino acids, proteins, enzyme catalysis, metabolism and molecular genetics. It will emphasize nomenclature, structure, and function of the principal molecular components of cellular biochemistry. Emphasis will be placed on the relevance of biochemistry to disciplines in chemistry, biology, medicine, pharmaceuticals, and nutrition.
