  1. Course overview (approximately 120 words)

The course provides total knowledge about molecular components of the cell. The structure, properties and function of important biological molecules like proteins, enzymes, carbohydrates, lipids … are thoroughly and systematically referred to. The structural complexity and functional diversity of proteins are especially emphasized.

The intermediary metabolism is presented with the pathway regulation and metabolic integration as the main focus. The influence of disease states on the whole metabolism is also considered. The correlations between metabolism of different substances (like carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids) and organ specialization will help the students understand how various pathways are co-regulated, the reason why organism can adapt to the environment.
