Course Description
Exploration of cell biology with an emphasis on the integration of the chemistry of organic molecules in cellular function. Topics will include cell signaling, metabolism, and genetic regulation. Evolutionarily conserved mechanisms of action will be emphasized. Students should come to this course with an understanding of the concept of structure-function relationships in biology, the importance of chemical pathways in and between cells, and what it means for a gene, protein, or other structure to be evolutionarily conserved.
