MC1: BIOCHEMISTRY (LECTURE)

UNIVERSITY OF THE CORDILLERAS


COLLEGE OF NURSING
INSTRUCTOR: MRS. BEVERLY B. SANTOS - BENTRES

MESSAGE TO LEARNERS

Welcome to Biochemistry – one of your favourite subjects! The Chemistry of life.

Biochemistry is a branch of biology, which deals with the molecules that make
up living organisms. Somewhat, it overlaps with organic chemistry that deals with
carbon – containing and inorganic chemistry.

Our body is composed of biological macromolecules such as proteins,


carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids that are necessary for life. However,
some of us might have unclear knowledge and understanding on how these
biological macromolecules function in the body. Still, such awareness will help us
in our own personal health and education, as well as its application in the health
care setting.

Let us then explore the foundation of Biochemistry.

This Module then contains the following topics.

1. Introduction to Biochemistry

2. The Historical Milestones in Biochemistry

3. Major Biomolecules in the Human Body
