Learning outcomes
The course is mostly focused on the relationship between structure and function of biological macromolecules and the main metabolic pathways in which they are involved.
The fundamental objective is to stimulate the student's interest in biomolecular science by highlighting interconnections between biochemical processes and related energetics.
At the end of the Course the student should prove to master scientific terms and notions in order to critically and autonomously evaluate the biochemical processes of life.
Program
- Building blocks of the biological matter: the polymeric structure of biological macromolecules.
The carbon atom, electronic configuration and hybridization states . Classification of organic compounds and functional groups; hydrocarbons; alcohols; thiols; amines; Aldehydes and ketones; Carboxylic acids; Esters and anhydrides. The oxidation state of organic compounds.
- Protein structure and function: structure and physicochemical properties of amino acids. The peptide bond. Protein structure levels; Fibrous protein; Globular proteins. Hemoglobin and myoglobin: structure, function, factors that influence the oxygen bond, hemoglobin variants. Enzymes: reaction rate, enzymatic catalysis; Coenzymes and cofactors; Water-soluble vitamins; Regulation of enzymatic activity.
- Introduction to metabolism. Metabolic pathways, anabolism and catabolism. The chemical equilibrium and Le Chatelier principle; Equilibrium constant. Chemical transformations and energy changes: Gibbs free energy, exo- and endoergonic reactions. Spontaneity of metabolic reactions end equilibria; Molecules with high energy content: ATP. Redox coenzymes; Regulation of metabolism.
- Carbohydrate structure and metabolism: chemistry of monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides. Digestion. Glycolysis and its regulation; gluconeogenesis; Glycogen synthesis and glycogenolysis. The pentose monophosphate path.
- Citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation: the cycle of citric acid and its regulation; Electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation.

Examination Methods
In order to pass the final exam, students shall demonstrate an appropriate understanding of the basic concepts of biochemistry, from biological macromolecules to metabolic transformations.
Examination
---------------------------
The exam consists of a written test, structured as follows:
- 16 multiple choice questions, each with four possible answers. Each correct answer scores 1.5 points.
- 2 open questions, to be briefly answered in a limited space. Each open answer is worth 5 points.
The script has a duration of 75 minutes.
Final score
---------------
The final score, in thirty's (/30), is be obtained by summing up the scores of the two parts.

Calendario Esami
in questa pagina verranno pubblicati i calendari degli esami in formato pdf
Si ritiene utile allegare le linee guida dell'ateneo circa la possibilità di poter richiedere lo svolgimento degli esami on line.
Si allega altresì il modulo da compilare per richiedere lo svolgimento degli esami a distanza da indirizzare ai docenti interessati.
E' possibile richiedere l'esame a distanza solo in presenza di 3 casi:
1) Essere attualmente positivi al covid-19 ed in isolamento;
2) Essere stato a stretto contatto con soggetto positivo;
3) Essere in quarantena per ingresso/rientro in Italia da paese straniero;
4) Risiedere in un luogo oltre gli 80 km dalla sede didattica del Corso di Studi;
