CH 250
Introductory Biochemistry
In this course, the principles of biochemistry are introduced with a chemical emphasis. Topics include: the chemistry of water and biologically relevant aqueous solutions, structure of biomolecules and biopolymers (amino acids, peptides and proteins, nucleotides, DNA and RNA, carbohydrates and polysaccharides, lipids and biomembranes), introduction to enzymes and coenzymes.
Prerequisites: CH202 or CH206.
Co-requisites: CH203 recommended.
Notes: 3 lecture hours, 3 biweekly lab hours.
