CHM 345 Biochemistry

Prerequisite: CHM 222

A one-term intensive study of modern biochemistry. The class is comprised of three major sections. In the biomolecules section, students will study amino acids, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. In the proteins section, students will study protein structure, function, and enzyme kinetics. Finally, in the metabolism section, students will study glycolysis, the citric-acid cycle, and electron transport/oxidative phosphorylation. This class draws on all four previous classes of chemistry (CHM 131/134, 221, and 222). There will be three hours of lecture each week.
