CURRICULUM

Much of biochemistry deals with the structures, functions and interactions of biological macromolecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipids, which provide the structure of cells and perform many of the functions associated with life. The chemistry of the cell also depends on the reactions of smaller molecules and ions.

This Biochemistry and Lab course contains the following lessons:

Lesson 1 – Amino Acids, Proteins and Enzymes

Lesson 2 – Carbohydrates and Lipids

Lesson 3 – Lipids, Structure of Cell Membrane and Receptors

Lesson 4 – Nucleic Acids, DNA Replication and Transcription and Translation

Lesson 5 – Mechanisms of DNA Damage and Repair, Metabolism and ATP and Glycolysis

Lesson 6 – Citric Acid Cycle, Electron Transport Pathway, Oxidative Phosphorylation and Photosynthesis

Lesson 7 – Cell Communication: Hormones and Transmitters, What is Cancer, Illicit and Pharmaceutical Drugs

COURSE MATERIALS

All the study materials, downloadable lessons in .pdf format, videos, assignments and final exam are all online
