| The objective of this class is to understand the function and pathways of biometabolism of biomacromolecule like carbohydrate, amino acid, and lipid. This class cover three parts: general enzymology, metabolism and its regulation, and many metabolic problems of amino acid, fatty acid, and carbohydrate. At first part, we study enzymes-kinetics and specificity , mechanism of enzyme action, and its regulation. At second part, we study glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation, photosynthesis, gluconeogenesis, glycogen metabolism and pentose phosphate pathway, fatty acid catabolism, lipid biosynthesis, nitrogen acquisition and amino acid metabolism, and metabolic integration and organ specialization. At last part, metabolic disorders of amino acid, lipid, and carbohydrate metabolism as well as lysosomal storage disorders, disorders of urea formation will be studied. | |||||||||
| BIO3050 | Individual Studies in Biological Science2 | 1 | 2 | Major | Bachelor | 3-4 | Korean | Yes | |
| This course is designed to provide a student individual studies in biological science during the 3rd~4th years. Students who have completed BIO2014 (Individual Studies in Biological Science 1 )are eligible. Students carry out research on the selected theme under the guidance of the professor in the specific area of interest and to submit research reports. This is to offer pre-research activities which will lead to the research for undergraduate thesis required for completing a B. S. degree program in Biological Science. | |||||||||
| BIO3051 | Laboratory of Plant Taxonomy | 2 | 4 | Major | Bachelor | 3-4 | English | Yes | |
| The aim of the class entitled “Laboratory of Plant Taxonomy” is to learn and practice conceptions and their applications in various topics in plant taxonomy (or systematics). In addition, this laboratory course is designed to help students to explore new frontiers and emerging fields in plant taxonomy. Several topics that will be covered in depth throughout this class include identification of major flowering plant families and determination of their phylogenetic relationships, principles and methods of phylogenetic systematics, principles and applications of molecular systematics, and application of phylogenomic data in plant systematics. | |||||||||
| BIO3053 | Molecular and Environmental Biology | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor | - | No | ||
| With development of integrated multidisciplinary research area, undergraduate students in biological science learn general molecular biology. In this class, students learn how environmental biology can be integrated with molecular biology based on gene structure and expression in response to environmental pollutants in the levels of organisms to molecular response. | |||||||||
| BIO3054 | Biological Sciences and future technology | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor | 2-4 | - | No | |
| This course is designed to help students obtain a broad knowledge of biology in general. Starting from the birth and evolution of life, this course covers diverse topics such as biosynthesis of macromolecules, gene expression and regulation, energy metabolism, emphasizing the importance of studying life sciences in developing new technologies. We will also discuss the relationship with other disciplines and the role and prospect of life sciences in the future society to improve human welfare. | |||||||||
| BIO3056 | Fundamentals of Neurobiology | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor | 2-4 | Korean | Yes | |
| This course covers a broad range of questions about how the nervous systems of humans and other animals are organized, how they develop, and how they function to generate behavior. These questions can be explored using the tools of genetics and genomics, molecular and cell biology, anatomy, behavioral observation, and functional brain imaging. The major challenge facing students of this course is to integrate the knowledge derived from these various levels and methods of analysis into a coherent understanding of brain structure and function. | |||||||||
| BIO3057 | Molecular and cellular biology lab class3 | 2 | 4 | Major | Bachelor | 3-4 | Korean | Yes | |
| Students not only learn basic molecular biological information but also gain experience practicing laboratory techniques. This course covers Biochemistry (Characterization and structure-function relationship of a protein - Protein purification and quantitation, etc), Glycobiology (Thin layer chromatography, Column chromatography) and Animal physiology (electrophysiology, optogenetics, measurement of metabolic rate, etc). | |||||||||
| BIO3058 | Molecular and cellular biology lab class4 | 2 | 4 | Major | Bachelor | 3-4 | Korean | Yes | |
| Students not only learn basic molecular biological information but also gain experience practicing laboratory techniques. This course covers Immunology (Neutrophil isolation by percoll & FACS analysis, Staining of neutrophil (Giemsa stain), Cytokine detection (ELISA), etc), Cancer cell (cell proliferation, EMT, etc) and Epigenetic gene regulation (breast cancer cell culture, chromatin prep, immunoprecipitation using H3K27ac antibody, ChIP-PCR, RT-PCR, etc). | |||||||||
| BIO3059 | Introduction to developmental biology | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor | 3-4 | Korean | Yes | |
| Introduction to developmental biology is the science that seeks to explain how the structure of organisms changes with time. Structure, which may also be called morphology or anatomy, encompasses the arrangement of parts, the number of parts, and the different types of parts. Developmental biology explores how a variety of interacting processes generate an organism’s heterogeneous shapes, size, and structural features that arise on the trajectory from embryo to adult, or more generally throughout a life cycle. | |||||||||
| BIO3060 | Microbiome and bacterial pathogenesis | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor | 2-4 | - | No | |
| We are going to study symbiosis between humans and microbes, focusing on both the mutualistic and parasitic relationships of humans with microbes. I am going to use “I contain multitudes” by Ed Yong as the main textbook and the microbial pathogenesis part of “Microbiology: An evolving scienece”as a supplementary material. | |||||||||
| BIO3061 | Omics Biology | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor | 3-4 | - | No | |
| This course aims to learn diverse omics approaches including genomics,transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, interactomics and connectomics, which pursue systemic understanding of complex biological systems. | |||||||||
