3.00 Credits
Lecture, 2 hours; discussion, 1 hour. Prerequisite(s): BCH 100 with a grade of "C-" or better or BCH 110B with a grade of "C-" or better; BCH 184 with a grade of "C-" or better; or consent of instructor. Introduction to biological energy transduction. Describes the coupling of oxidative phosphorylation and photosynthesis to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis and the coupling of ATP hydrolysis to ion transport, chemotaxis, molecular motors, biomimetics, and other biological processes on the basis of recent structural and mechanistic studies of the protein complexes involved.

3.00 Credits
Lecture, 3 hours. Prerequisite(s): BCH 100 or BCH 110A with a grade of C- or better. An introduction to the fundamental principles of enzymology. Specific topics include, acid-base catalysis, strain effects, transition state theory, enzyme kinetics (including isotope effects), enzyme dynamics and enzyme regulation. Considers in detail the reactions of several representative enzymes.
-
2.00 Credits
Seminar, 1 hour; discussion, 1 hour. Prerequisite(s): upper-division standing; consent of instructor. Prepares science students for oral presentations and formal research talks. Includes student presentations and discussions. Also covers the electronic preparation of figures and tables.
-
1.00 Credits
Lecture, 1 hour. Prerequisite(s): junior or senior standing or consent of instructor. Introduces students to the analysis of scientific articles. Students read current research papers, present the data, and learn to critique papers.
-
2.00 - 4.00 Credits
Individual study, 6-16 hours. Prerequisite(s): upper-division standing and consent of instructor. Literature review and tutorial in select modern biochemical topics. Course is repeatable.
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Prerequisite(s): junior status and consent of the instructor. Directed research and preparation of written report. Course is repeatable.
-
1.00 - 12.00 Credits
Internship, 3-36 hours. Prerequisite(s): BCH 102, consent of instructor, upper-division standing. An internship to provide students with on-the-job biochemical experience in government, industrial or clinical laboratories. Each individual project must be approved by the Biochemistry Department and the laboratory director where the internship is to be carried out. A written report is required. Graded Satisfactory (S) or No Credit (NC). May be repeated for a total of 12 units.
-
4.00 Credits
Lecture, 3 hours; laboratory, 3 hours. Prerequisite(s): none. An introduction to the fundamentals of life processes at the cellular level. Topics include cell structure, chemical composition, metabolism, reproduction, genetics, and development with emphasis on humans. Not recommended for natural science majors. Either BIOL 002 or BIOL 003 may be taken as a breadth requirement in biology; together they provide a general introduction to the field of biology. Credit is not awarded for BIOL 002 if it has already been awarded for BIOL 005A or BIOL 05LA.
-
4.00 Credits
Lecture, 3 hours; discussion, 1 hour. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 05LA (may be taken concurrently); CHEM 001A and CHEM 01LA with grades of "C-" or better or CHEM 01HA and CHEM 1HLA with grades of "C-" or better; consent of instructor is required for students repeating the course. An intensive course designed to prepare students for upperdivision courses in cell and molecular biology. Covers biochemical, structural, metabolic, and genetic aspects of cells. (Required for Biology majors; recommended for science majors desiring an introduction to biology.) Credit is not awarded for BIOL 005A if it has already been awarded for BIOL 002.

4.00 Credits
Lecture, 3 hours; laboratory, 3 hours. Prerequisite(s): BIOL 005A and BIOL 05LA with grades of "C-" or better; CHEM 001A or CHEM 01HA; CHEM 001B or CHEM 01HB; consent of instructor is required for students repeating the course. An intensive course designed to prepare students for upper-division courses in organismal biology. Covers developmental biology, physiology, and regulation at the level of the organism. (Required for Biology majors; recommended for science majors desiring an introduction to biology.) Credit is awarded for only one of BIOL 003 or BIOL 005B.
