Annotation -
Biochemistry: Seminar II essentially deepens the knowledge of students aquired during biochemistry study. It presumes the knowledge of basic lectures of biochemistry and aims at revealing the connection between particular metabolic pathways and at their deeper understanding. It serves as introducion of the student to the problematics of metabolic pathway regulation. At the end of the course students are presented with modern techniques of molecular biology, which are common in laboratory practice.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

describe pathway and regulation of basic anabolic an catabolic processes

describe respiratory chain and photosynthesis

describe types of membrane transport

understand the very basics of molecular genetics
