Introductory Biochemistry, Chem-214 (Spring 2002)
Introductory Biochemistry - Chem-106
Spring 2016 Wolf 100
Tue / Thur 9:30 – 10:45 pm
Prerequisite:
Chem-105: General Chemistry
Instructor:
Dr. Karen Hoober (skhoober5@)
Office Hours: Tues 12:15 – 12:45pm, Brown 235
Percentage Grade Allocation:
Lab Weekly labs 15%
Quizzes Quiz 1-4 20%
Exams Exam I and II 40%
Finals Week Final Comprehensive Exam 25%
Periodic quizzes (~20min) will be administered during discussion sessions (see Tentative Schedule). Any changes to the topics to be covered will be announced prior to the change. You are responsible for ALL the material covered in class and stated in the assigned chapters unless explicitly stated otherwise.
There are no make-up quizzes, laboratory periods or exams. A review before each exam will be held out of class by the instructor with the time and date announced in class. An hourly exam missed for a valid reason (first discussed with the instructor) will be replaced by the corresponding grade on the final (Final is then 45% of your total grade).
By the end of this course, you should have a better understanding on the following:
An understanding of the structure of biomolecules (including organic molecules such as alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, thiols, amino acids, peptides, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids): their main interactions in the cellular, and how their structures are stabilized by surrounding forces.
An understanding of the chemical reactivity of biomolecules, with particular emphasis on
biomolecules such as amino acids, peptides, and proteins.
A broad understanding of the catalytic properties of enzymes.
An introduction to the central aspects of the following metabolic pathways: glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Using this knowledge to integrate between pathways.
