Class Objectives
/Class Outline |
Cells are filled with a variety of molecules, ranging from large macromolecules such as proteins and DNA to much smaller ones like amino acids, each with different sizes and functions. To understand the functions of these molecules, one can create synthetic molecules that mimics naturally-occurring ones to cheat organisms and see their responses. Such approach is called “chemical biology” and developed recently as an interdisciplinary field of biology and organic chemistry. In this lecture, I will introduce the fundamentals and cutting-edge research of chemical biology, focusing primarily on plant hormones.
