    Class Objectives and Goals:<\/span><\/h3>\n

    This course is designed for upper division undergraduate students that are interested in learning about how life works. It is highly recommended for students that are interested in pursuing a graduate or professional degree in the medical sciences. The course is designed in two installments:\u00a0 Biochemistry I offered in the fall term, and Biochemistry II offered in the winter term. The focus of Biochemistry II is on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, as well as the processes of cellular energy production and utilization.\u00a0 Within these process, we will engage in the detailed exploration of biological macromolecule structure and function with emphasis on the mechanisms of protein\/ligand binding, metabolic pathways and regulatory enzyme mechanisms. By the end of the second quarter, you should be able to:<\/span><\/p>\n
