Students should include a statement of Course Learning Outcomes (CLO), relate subject biochemistry with examples given in the introduction lecture.
Biochemistry is defined as the study of chemistry that relates to the biological activity of organisms. Biochemistry is also known as study of life at molecular level and describing the chemistry of the living cell. There are two major breakthroughs in history of biochemistry, which are the discovery of roles of enzymes as catalysts and the role of nucleic acids as information-carrying molecules. In biochemistry, we are going to be able to describe the structure, organization and function of living organisms in terms of molecules.
Application of Biochemistry:
1. Medicines
3. Industrial processes
Three Areas of Studies:
· Conformational – structure and 3-D arrangements of biomolecules.
· Metabolism – biochemical pathways.
· Informational – language for communication inside and between cells.
