2.1.3- BIOCHEMISTRY:
2.1.3.1- AIMS AND SCOPE OF THE COURSE IN BIOCHEMISTRY:
The major aim is to provide a sound but crisp knowledge on the biochemical
basis of the life processes relevant to the human system and to
dental/medical practice. The contents should be organised to build on the
already existing information available to the students in the pre-university
stage and reorienting. A mere rehash should be avoided.
The chemistry portion should strive towards providing information on the
functional groups, hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties and weak valence
forces that organize macromolecules. Details on structure need not be
emphasized.
Discussion on metabolic processes should put emphasis on the overall
change, interdependence and molecular turnover. While details of the steps
may be given, the student should not be expected to memorise them. An
introduction to biochemical genetics and molecular biology is a must but
details should be avoided. The exposure to antivitamins, antimetabolitess
and enzyme inhibitors at this stage, will provide a basis for the future study
of medical subjects. An overview of metabolic regulation is to be taught by
covering hormonal action, second messengers and regulation of enzyme
activities. Medical aspects of biochemistry should avoid describing
innumerable functional tests most of which are not in vogue. Cataloguing
genetic disorders under each head of metabolism is unnecessary. A few
examples, which correlate genotype change to functional changes, should be
adequate.
At the end of the course the student would be able to acquire a useful core of
information, which can be retained for a long time.
