Course description |
[Course objective] In this course, Biochemistry I, the students learn the structures, chemical and physical properties and interactions of biomolecules such as amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and their complexes. [Course synopsis] Biochemistry is the investigation of the molecular basis of life. The students should understand the chemical and physical properties of biological molecules influence their function as the biochemical baseline knowledge. |
