This course involves the study of the molecular composition of living cells, the organization of biological molecules within the cell, and the structure and function of these biological molecules. The biological macromolecules which this course focuses on are proteins, polynucleic acids (DNA and RNA), polysaccharides, and lipids. During the course we will concentrate on the structures of these molecules, their functions. Other topics to be examined in the course include the study of biomembranes and transport, metabolism and metabolic pathways. Methods and approaches used in biochemical research will be presented.
