Description:
The module provides broadened knowledge about structure and characterization of enzymes. The course focuses also on the influence of chemical and physical factors on the activity of enzymes. Special attention will be paid to induction of enzyme synthesis in Pro- and Eucaryota, the role of coenzymes and inhibitors in enzymes activity. The module describes also metabolic blocks and detoxification reaction.
Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge of chemistry, biochemistry, mathematics and statistic.
