Course Highlights

The tools section includes information about various molecular graphics programs used to view three-dimensional structures in this course.

Course Description

This course deals with a more advanced treatment of the biochemical mechanisms that underlie biological processes. Emphasis will be given to the experimental methods used to unravel how these processes fit into the cellular context as well as the coordinated regulation of these processes. Topics include macromolecular machines for energy and force transduction, regulation of biosynthetic and degradative pathways, and the structure and function of nucleic acids.

Technical Requirements

RasMol software is required to run the .spt and .pdb files found on this course site.
