Course description |
Biological Chemistry ( Biochemistry ) focuses life from the point of view of chemistry. It is a basic science to understand life. Whole life ( Animals, Plants, Microbes ) consists of cell(s). The cell activities are important to maintain life, those contain taking nutrition, excretion of wastes, intracellular metabolism and cell-cell communication. Those phenomena are able to understand by chemistry. In this lecture, the metabolic pathways of four kinds of basic contents in the cell are learned. You can understand the way of gaining the energy and the nutrition. |
Expected Learning |
Learners who successfully complete this lecture will be able to 1.Know the basic of metabolism and functions of enzymes 2.Understand and lead the equation of enzyme kinetics by yourself 3.Notice the roll of each metabolic pathway and those networks Review the lecture as soon as possible is important to understand this subject rather than preparation. |
