Course Title:
Biochemistry
Course Number:
XB_0030
Course Description:
The interactive documents, lectures and tutorials will provide insight
into the basic
(bio-)chemical principles of the construction of living cells, the
chemical structure of the cellular components and the way in which
macromolecules (proteins, DNA, RNA, lipids) are used to make cells
function. Furthermore, the way in which signalling in and between cells
can takes place and how these pathways can be modulated by chemical
signalling substances and medicines will be discussed. Attention will be
given to how cells extract energy from the breakdown of nutrients and
how this energy is used for growth and cell division. The final topic of
the course is the cytoskeleton and how this is involved in cell
division.
