Learning Outcomes of UE

<u><strong>At the end of the course, the students will be able to:</strong></u> - interpret the impact of pH variation on a peptide or protein charge, - link protein structure and function, - understand the regulation of glucose metabolism, - follow the BAC2 biochemistry course without difficulties.

Content of UE

<u><strong>The lecture will be st up in three main parts:</strong></u> 1. Reminder of water structure and pH 2. Structures and functions of the proteins and enzymes 3. Carbohydrate bioenergetics and metabolism In addition, the lecture (face-to-face) will be associated with practical works (supervised work, exercices and e-learning)
