Biochemistry

Catalog description

Biological systems require and regulate the transformation and flow of energy to maintain homeostasis. In this class we will study central biochemical concepts-including biomolecular structure, function, enzymology, and metabolism-to understand how organisms maintain homeostasis and respond to shifts in internal and external conditions as we make connection to broader biological concepts and contexts. No lab section; this course does not count for the CHE major Satisfies Biology major requirement. Satisfies Genomics minor requirement. Satisfies Neuroscience minor requirement. Prerequisites & Notes Prerequisites: Successful completion of BIO 111/113/115 and CHE 250 are required. Notes: Not open to students with credit for BIO 303. Not open to students with credit for BIO 303 or CHE 230.
