BE 310LR - Biomedical Chemical Principles 2

Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes of living things. The course covers the fundamentals of biological chemistry. We will introduce the structures and functions of major biomolecules found in the cells, including water, amino acids, nucleic acids, proteins, sugars and polysaccharides, and lipids. We will introduce biotechnologies used in the synthesis, purification and characterization of proteins and nucleic acids, such as solid phase peptide synthesis, chromatography, electrophoresis, western blotting, qRT-PCR, and DNA sequencing.
