CHEM264 - Biophysical Chemistry/Lecture, Laboratory

Emphasizes the physical chemistry of biological macromolecules—proteins and nucleic acids. Covers the basic laws of thermodynamics, molecular thermodynamics (including aspects of modeling macromolecular structure, molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics simulations), statistical thermodynamics, x-ray and NMR structure determination, light scattering by macromolecules, kinetics quantum mechanics and spectroscopy, and solution behavior of macromolecules. The laboratory sessions are split between “wet” macromolecular chemistry and computational projects. Prerequisite: BCMB271, MATH121, MATH125 or permission of instructor. Mr. Lazo/Offered every spring
