The goal | Develop an understanding of the chemistry of key biological molecules. Interpret ; biological pathways in terms of thermodynamics, chemistry, regulation and apply these skills to the understanding of novel pathways. | |||
The outcome | Describe the primary catabolic and anabolic pathways pertaining to the following ; molecular classes: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, vitamins ; For each methabolic pathway , identify the key regulatory points, the energetics of the ; reactions and the key chemical transformations involved. | |||
