Agricultural Biochemistry

Agricultural Biochemistry focuses on the more traditional fields of biochemistry with an emphasis on understanding the different biomolecules and their importance in the larger more complex organisms studied by animal, food, and plant scientists. It will build upon the basic inorganic and organic chemistry concepts you have learned in other courses. The structure and function of the biomolecules and their applications in agriculture will be emphasized. A review of cells and their structures and an introduction to basic metabolic reactions and pathways will be presented with agricultural applications.

Chapter topics include Amino Acids & Proteins, Enzymes, DNA & Biotechnology, Bioengineering and Biotechnology, and more!
