BCH-BIOCHEMISTRY (BIOPHYSICS)
 

BCH 3033         Biochemistry I     4

Prerequisite: CHM 2210.

Corequisite: BCH 3033L.

A first course in biochemistry dealing with the classification, function, and chemistry of proteins, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids and the smaller molecules from which they are derived. Conformational properties of biomolecules, enzyme kinetics and mechanisms, allosterism and cooperativity are surveyed. Material and supply fee will be assessed for corresponding lab.

BCH 3034         General Biochemistry: Metabolism         4

Prerequisite: BCH 3033/BCH 3033L (Biology majors) or CHM 2211/ CHM 2211L and CHM 3410 or CHM 3400C (Chemistry majors).

Corequisite: BCH 3034L.

Builds on the knowledge gained in BCH 3033 or CHM 2210/CHM 2211 which deals with biological membranes and the anabolic and catabolic pathways of the major biological macromolecules. Material and supply fee will be assessed for corresponding lab.
