CHEM 3510 - Biochemistry I

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Chemistry

Description:

Covers cellular metabolism of biologically-important molecules (carbohydrate, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids) as well as regulation of these metabolic processes. Principles will be taught using structure/function relationships. Inclusive Access Course Material (electronic book) fees may apply, see Fees tab under each course section for details. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Mathematically manipulate hypothetical aqueous environments to evaluate the behavior of biological macromolecules. 2. Integrate the structures of amino acids into proteins and hypothesize the effect of structural manipulation. 3. Assess and recommend various biochemical techniques for the separation and characterization of proteins. 4. Distinguish between the various enzymatic mechanisms and describe the kinetics of enzymes. 5. Assemble cell signaling and glycolytic pathways and outline an alternative pathway if metabolically disturbed. Prerequisites: BIOL 1610 and CHEM 2320 (all Grade C or higher). Corequisites: CHEM 3515.
