Course Description
This course is an introduction to the basic principles of biochemistry. It emphasizes biochemical structures, properties, and functions, including enzyme kinetics and major metabolic processes. It can serve as a prerequisite for BCH 452 with permission of the department. This course is designed for those students who are not majoring in Biochemistry and do not require a more comprehensive introduction to biochemistry. It is not intended for graduate students. Credit is not allowed for both BCH 351 and BCH 451. Prerequisites required are BIO 183 and one of the two following pathways in chemistry: CH 101/102 (CH 103/104), CH 221/222 (CH 225/226), CH 223/224 (CH 227/228); or CH 101/102 (CH 103/104), CH 201/202 (CH 203/204) , CH 221/222 (CH 225/226). CH 201/202 and CH 223/224 are strongly recommended, if planning to pursue further biochemistry.
