CHEM 385 Biochemistry II
This course builds depth of biochemical understanding
upon
the foundation laid in CHEM 379. Content includes selected topics
in catabolic and anabolic metabolism, integration and regulation of
metabolism,
photosynthesis and biochemical genetics including gene
regulation.
During the semester the students are asked to develop an independent,
hypothesis
driven, research/style proposal based on an area of biochemistry that
they
find particularly interesting.
Dr. Muth has been developing this course since the
Spring
of 2004. His primary focus is to create an atmosphere for the
study
and discussion of topics from the primary literature. To
supplement
these articles, he utilizes Lehninger
Principles of Biochemistry, 4th edition by Nelson and Cox as
his
text of choice.
