Thematik

The subject serves as a foundation for the preclinical subjects Pathobiochemistry, Pharmacology, Pathophysiology, and the clinical subjects Internal Medicine, Clinical Chemistry and Neurology.
The 2nd semester of the 2-semester Biochemistry course - based on the material covered by the 1st semester - gives a deeper view into the fundamentals of structure-function relationships of small- and macromolecules, especially focusing on the structure, function and regulation of the molecules that are involved in the storage and transmission of genetic information, and dealing with basic molecular biology techniques. Furthermore, the regulation mechanisms of metabolic, hormonal and signal transduction pathways on the levels of the cell as well as of the organism are covered. The special biochemical characteristics of the different organs are also discussed.
