Key Points

The aim is to educate students about the basic units of biological macromolecules and their structural dynamics.
Students are taught to describe the basic units of macromolecules and the types of linkages between them.
Instruction includes recognizing repeating units in biological macromolecules and discussing covalent and noncovalent interactions.
Students demonstrate understanding of the basic units and types of linkages in macromolecules.
Students show ability to recognize structural impacts of covalent and noncovalent interactions.

Abstract

ASBMB Learning Objectives (https://www.asbmb.org/education/core-concept-teaching-strategies/foundational-concepts/structure-function) 1. Biological macromolecules are large and complex Students should be able to describe the basic units of the macromolecules and the types of linkages between them (Introductory). 2. Structure is determined by several factors Students should be able to recognize the repeating units in biological macromolecules and be able to discuss the structural impacts of the covalent and noncovalent interactions involved (Introductory).
