Chemistry 4551, Physical
Biochemistry, is the first course in a two-semester sequence. We will focus
on the physical chemistry of biological molecules,including amino acids, proteins,
lipids, carbohydrates, and nucleic acids, emphasizing the relationship between
structure and physiological function. This is a 4-hour course, including 3 hours
of lecture and a 3-hour laboratory period each week. Prerequisites include Chem
1212, Chem 3412, and either Math 2011 or 1220, C or better in each. Chem 4541
is the 3-hour lecture-only portion of the course. Either course prepares the
student for the second course in the biochemistry sequence. The sequence is
strongly recommended for both premedical and predental students.
