BMB 460 - Advanced Biochemistry

BMB 460 provides an in depth exploration of selected topics of biochemistry. Course content varies somewhat from year to year but often includes mechanisms of enzyme regulation, control of metabolic pathways, chemical activation of molecules, the mechanisms of signal transduction, and protein structure-function relationships, including their modification, cellular trafficking, and degradation. Investigating some topics through current primary literature provides additional opportunities to improve analytical and integrative thinking skills, and problem solving.
