Biochemical analysis and separation methods
Enzymology (catalysm, kinetics, mechanisms, inhibition)
Protein structure, function and biosynthesis
Glycolysis, gluconeogensis and the citric acid cycle
Glycogen, lipids and nitrogen metabolism
The calvin cycle and the pentose phosphate pathway
Metabolic rule mechanisms
G-Proteins
Hormone control and signal transference
Biological membranes and transport processes over membranes
Oxidative phosphorylation and photosynthesis
The course is designed to provide a basic knowledge of the cell’s macro molecules and the cellular processes on a molecular level and give an introduction to biochemical analysis and separation methods.
After passing the course, the student should be able to:
- describe and summarize the cell’s basic biochemical processes on a molecular level and solve more simple problems.
- describe the connection between catabolism and anabolism
- expand his/her understanding within biochemical, bio-process technical, molecular biological and enzymological areas.
