Aim of the course The main objectives of the course: - to be able understand and apply the methods used in metabolic studies, - to gain understanding of the localization, regulation and integration of metabolic pathways and molecular basis of human metabolic diseases.
Principial knowlege in physical chemistry: chemical equilibrium, entropy and laws of thermodynamics. Enzymes – principles and kinetics.
Principles of metabolism. Glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are regulated contrary. The citric acid cycle regulation. Regulation of oxidative phosphorylation. The pentosephosphate pathway regulation. Coordinated regulation of glycogen synthesis and breakdown. Fatty acids metabolism regulation. Regulation of biosynthesis of lipids and steroids. Amino acids biosynthesis is under allosteric regulation. Regulation of biosynthesis and degradation of nucleotides. Integration of mammalian metabolism: - key metabolites, - tissue specific metabolism, - glucose homeostasis during fasting , starvation and satiation.
Lecture (in a form of multimedia presentation) - Practical method – laboratory classes with the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants as a model organism and microbiological equipment.
