Informations du cours

Metabolic biochemistry entails the study of intermediary metabolism and the structures involved. This unit is concerned mainly with the metabolic processes involved in the inter-conversion and storage of metabolic energy, the regulation of these processes and the associated molecules. Specifically, the intention of this unit is to: Introduce some of the chemical and physical processes on which life depends; Provide you with an understanding of some of the major biological molecules and their metabolic interrelationships sufficient to pursue further studies in the nutrition, exercise science, physiology and molecular biology of higher organisms; Develop your awareness of the biomedical applications of biochemistry.
