Biochemistry

By Noer Kasanah, Rachel Powers, Eli Bridge

Fundamentals of Biomolecules: Provide an in-depth introduction to the structure, function, and classification of biomolecules, including proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids. Discuss how these molecules interact and contribute to cellular structure and function.

Enzyme Function and Kinetics: Explore the principles of enzyme structure, catalysis, and regulation. Cover enzyme kinetics, mechanisms of action, and the role of enzymes in metabolic pathways. Discuss factors that influence enzyme activity and methods for measuring enzyme kinetics.

Metabolic Pathways and Energy Production: Examine the central metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Discuss the biochemical basis of energy production, ATP synthesis, and the role of cofactors and coenzymes in cellular respiration.

Genetics and Molecular Biology: Discuss the biochemical principles underlying DNA replication, transcription, and translation. Explore the molecular mechanisms of gene expression, regulation, and the role of RNA in protein synthesis. Cover topics like gene editing and the biochemical basis of heredity.

Biochemistry in Health and Disease: Provide insights into the role of biochemistry in human health, including the biochemical basis of diseases, such as metabolic disorders and genetic mutations. Discuss current applications of biochemistry in diagnostics, drug development, and personalized medicine.
