Biochemistry I

Biochemistry is the study of structure and function of macromolecules, basic biochemical principles, and metabolic and information pathways of living organisms. This course is an introduction to the extensive and rapidly-expanding field of biochemistry. This is the first semester of the two-semester biochemistry sequence that covers the structures of the four major classes of macromolecules and their components, enzymatic kinetics, cell membranes and transport, cell signaling, and catabolism.
