CHEM - 460. Advanced Topics in Biochemistry

1-3 credit(s)
This course covers advanced topics in biochemistry, and focuses on issues and techniques which are at the forefront in the current literature. Topics can include spectroscopic and computational approaches to studying protein and ‘nucleic acid structures; thermodynamics and kinetics of protein folding; the solution behavior of macromolecules; principles that govern molecular recognition; enzyme kinetic s and mechanisms, lipids and lipoproteins, metalloprotein structure and functions, and techniques used to determine the three-dimensional structures of biological macromolecules.

Prerequisite(s): CHEM 220 and BIOL 420 or CHEM 428 (may be taken concurrently In cases where a laboratory is offered, a lab fee will be assessed.
