BIO 307 Biochemistry

(Cross-listed with CHM 307) A study of the organic chemistry of the molecular components of cells including proteins, enzymes (kinetics and mechanisms), carbohydrates, and lipids. The metabolism of these constituents, including glycolysis, TCA cycle and electron transport, and energy transformations involved in these pathways will also be discussed. BIO 307L Laboratory optional for Chemistry majors but required of all others. It is strongly suggested that students take BIO 280 or BIO 351 prior to taking BIO 307. Prerequisite: CHM 202. Fall
