KURSUS INI AKAN MEMPERKENALKAN SEL DARI SEGI STRUKTUR ASASNYA DAN MELIPUTI ORGANEL-ORGANEL SERTA FUNGSI-FUNGSI MEREKA. PERBINCANGAN JUGA AKAN MERANGKUMI BAHAN BINA MAKROMOLEKUL SEPERTI ASID AMINO, ASID LEMAK DAN MONOSAKARIDA. INI AKAN DITERUSKAN DENGAN PERBINCANGAN MENGENAI STRUKTUR DAN FUNGSI MAKROMOLEKUL SEPERTI PROTEIN, LEMAK, KARBOHIDRAT DAN JUGA ASID NUKLEIK. SETERUSNYA PERBINCANGAN AKAN DILANJUTKAN KEPADA PROSES-PROSES BIOKIMIA YANG BERLAKU DI DALAM SEL DENGAN PENEKANAN KEPADA ENZIM SEBAGAI BIOPEMANGKIN; METABOLISME KARBOHIDRAT, LEMAK DAN PROTEIN; KAWALATURAN METABOLISME; DAN BIOSINTESIS MAKROMOLEKUL..
THIS COURSE DISCUSSES THE CELL IN TERMS OF ITS BASIC STRUCTURE, ORGANELLES AND THEIR FUNCTION. IT ALSO INCLUDES BUILDING BLOCKS OF MACROMOLECULES SUCH AS AMINO ACIDS, FATTY ACIDS AND MONOSACCHARIDES. THIS LEADS TO DISCUSSIONS ON THE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF MACROMOLECULES E.G. PROTEINS, FATS, CARBOHYDRATES AND NUCLEIC ACIDS. THE BIOCHEMICAL PROCESSES THAT OCCUR IN THE CELL SUCH AS ENZYMES AS CATALYSTS, CARBOHYDRATE, FAT AND PROTEIN METABOLISM, METABOLIC REGULATION AND BIOSYNTHESIS OF MACROMOLECULES ARE ALSO DISCUSSED. AT THE END OF THIS COURSE, STUDENTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN PROKARYOTE AND EUKARYOTE AS WELL AS NAME THE ORGANELLES AND THEIR FUNCTIONS. IN ADDITION, STUDENTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS ALL THE MAJOR BIOLOGICAL MACROMOLECULES AND DESCRIBE THEIR STRUCTURES AND FUNCTIONS. FINALLY, STUDENTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO DESCRIBE THE STRUCTURE AND MECHANISMS OF ENZYMES AS WELL AS KNOW THE MAJOR METABOLIC PATHWAYS IN A LIVING CELL. IN SHORT, STUDENTS SHOULD UNDERSTAND HOW A SINGLE CELL WORKS
