Summer Session 2001

General Information
Welcome to Structural Biochemistry class for the first  Summer Session 2001 at the Biology Department at UCSD taught by Dr. Lukas Buehler. This class is an introduction to various aspects of structure and function of biologically important macromolecules. These include proteins, nucleic acids, polysaccharides, and lipids. The course is divided into 3 major parts covering about three weeks each concluding with closed book examinations. In addition, the reading and understanding of current scientific literature is an essential addition to the textbook. To guide you through the lecture, a class reader is available through soft reserves. This reader is an outline of the lecture and is meant as a guideline, not a substitute, for the textbook (Biochemistry, by Voet and Voet).
