BIOL-202 - Introduction to Biochemistry

Minimum Credits: 3 Length: 90 hours Prerequisites: BIOL 201 Corequisites: CHEM 202 Delivery Method: On-campus Cost: $365.28 Lab Fees: $83.73 Total: $449.01 Course Outline: https://outlines.cotr.bc.ca/pdf/courses/Course-outline-BIOL-202-Fall-2022.pdf

BIOL 202 focuses on fundamental concepts in biochemistry including protein structure and function, enzyme kinetics, DNA-based technologies, and bioenergetics. Lectures will emphasize the intimate relationship between protein structure and function, and new technologies that are being used in the field of biochemistry. Topics include cellular energetics, enzyme kinetics, protein structure and function, glycobiology, current DNA-based technologies, and ATP metabolism, Laboratory exercises emphasize data collection and analysis and technical writing skills. Lab topics include enzyme kinetics, SDS PAGE, and bioinformatics.
