Thematik

The subject gives an overview of the molecular processes occurring in living organisms from two major aspects.

On the one hand, following the subject Introduction to Biochemistry, describes the metabolism of the four major types of biomolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids/proteins and nucleotides/nucleic acids) along with the indirect enzymatic regulation of these processes.

On the other hand, built on the subjects Introduction to Biochemistry and Molecular Cell Biology, accounts for the molecular processes responsible for the transmission of information within the living organisms from molecular biological (DNA-RNA-protein-metabolite) as well as hormonal point of view.

The subject lies down the foundations of the subjects Medical Biochemistry, Pharmacology and Clinical Chemistry.
