Annotation -
The subject forms an extention of the basic course of Biochemistry I. It should bring students to a wider understanding of biological and biochemical consequences. Therefore, the topics of lectures reflect knowledge from different areas of biochemistry (structure of biopolymers, molecular genetics, metabolism by bioanalytical methods etc).

Learning outcomes -

Students will be able to:

navigate biochemical literature and understand biochemical principles that are currently relevant across all fields of food technology, agriculture, and medicine. Their knowledge will also prepare them for further studies in master's and doctoral programs where biochemistry is considered an essential prerequisite.

In addition, students will be able to:

Explain the principles of gas metabolism, essential factors, and the regulation of enzyme activity.

Describe hormonal signaling and its connection to information transfer across membranes.

Describe how metabolism is coordinated among organs and explain the role of compartmentation of metabolic processes within the cell.

Classify organisms by metabolic type and explain the principles of metabolism in photolithotrophic organisms.

Summarize the principles of genetic engineering and discuss their practical applications.

Apply biochemical knowledge to interpret clinical parameters, propose appropriate analytical methods, and explain the biochemical basis of selected diseases.
