KINE 2020U – Exercise Biochemistry


This course will provide a comprehensive study of human biochemistry which will introduce major biopolymers and biomolecules, metabolic pathways, mechanisms of control, and gene function. This course will present how the basic principles of biochemistry underlie the normal physiological functions in humans and the perturbations of exercise. Topics will include nucleic acids, protein structure and function, enzymes,membranes, and metabolism (lipid, nitrogen, and carbohydrate). This course will better prepare Kinesiology students with an understanding of foundational biochemistry underlying rest and exercise. The lecture component will be structured towards introductory exercise biochemistry. This foundational knowledge will serve as the intellectual basis for advanced courses in exercise physiology and prescription.
