Course objectives include acquiring an additional understanding of developmental and comparative biochemistry.
Subject
Developmental and comparative biochemistry address the biochemical and molecular/cellular biological aspects of evolutionary history as well as the ontogeny of living organisms. The use of model organisms {Escheria coli; parasitic unicellular eukaryotes; parasitic metazoans (worms), caenorhabditis (free living worm); drosophila fly; autotrophic organisms/microorganisms, vertebrates/mammalians} and the selected unique traits of structural and functional features in individual molecules and their pathways is a practical approach in tackling this voluminous subject.
