Biochemistry Courses
U of U
BIOL 3510 – Biological Chemistry I
Structure and function of biomolecules, metabolism, and regulation. It is recommended that CHEM 2320 and BIOL 2020 be complete prior to taking this course.
BIOL 3515 – Biological Chemistry Laboratory
laboratory course in protein biochemistry and enzymology. Topics covered include spectrophotometry, enzyme kinetics, electrophoresis and chromatography. In addition to one 4-hour laboratory sessions and one lecture per week, the course requires substantial out-of-class work involving computer-based data analysis and molecular modeling. Students need to take CHEM/BIOL 3510 prior to taking, or simultaneously with, this course.

Weber State
CHEM 3070
Structure and function of biomolecules including proteins, nucleic acids, fats and carbohydrates. A focus on proteins as energy transforming and catalytic devices; their role in metabolism, defense and other biochemical processes. Three lectures a week. Prerequisite: CHEM 2310 and CHEM 2315.
Utah State University
CHEM 5700
General biochemistry for science majors, including proteins, enzymes, catalysis, bioenergetics, and catabolic metabolism.
Westminster
BIOL 350
A study of the chemistry of living organisms. Begins with a review of basic biology and organic chemistry as it applies to the biological systems, the structure and function of the cell, water and its importance in the biological system and energy considerations. Detailed discussions of protein chemistry, enzymology, carbohydrate structure, cellular metabolism, and lipid chemistry. Prerequisites: BIOL 205; CHEM 304. BIOL 204 is recommended. Same as CHEM 350.
