Biochem Ppt 56
| BARRY UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF HEALTH SCIENCES COURSE SYLLABUS SPRING 2013 |
COURSE NUMBER: BMS 528 SEC 01
COURSE NAME: BIOCHEMISTRY II
TERM/YEAR: Spring 2013 (Jan. 9th, 2013 – May 3rd, 2013)
LECTURE ROOM: Hollywood Rm 2
LECTURE SCHEDULE: Friday, 9:00 – 12:00 p.m. INSTRUCTOR NAME: Graham Shaw, Ph.D. Professor
OFFICE ADDRESS: Wiegand 229
OFFICE TELEPHONE: 305-899-3264
EMAIL: gshaw@mail.barry.edu
OFFICE HOURS: Tuesday, 12.30 – 3 p.m. Thursday, 12.30 – 3 p.m.
All other times by appointment
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Biochemistry at Barry University is taught over two semesters, Biochemistry I in the Fall and Biochemistry II in the Spring. These courses have been designed so that when integrated they provide the necessary biochemical knowledge for those in the medical and health related professions.
The structure, function and metabolism of biologically important molecules were reviewed in biochemistry I. Biochemistry II serves to build on this material whilst considering the application of biochemistry to disease etiology, diagnosis and treatment.
Biochemistry II starts with a review of two areas crucial to normal, healthy cellular functioning. The structure and function of biological membranes, in particular the variety of cell signal transduction paradigms and the biochemistry of hormones. The structure, function and replication of the cell’s genetic material. This information is reviewed in a series of lectures on DNA, the genetic code, protein synthesis and aspects of molecular biology. The digestion and absorption of biomolecules is reviewed and the consequences of malfunction considered. A number of disease states are used to illustrate selected principles including the relationship between nutrition and disease; atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, obesity and diabetes. The application of clinical biochemistry techniques to disease
