most universities in Nigeria do, however for your own good, Ʊ will be awarded msc biochemistry at d end of the programme, this is to widen your potential job openings. Specifically UI, unilorin, ABU, UNN. Offers options in toxicology, oncology/cancer research, emzymology and immunology. So Ʊ av a head start sweedy, ride on

Biochem is good mostly outside that country. I graduated as a Biochemist in 2005, I managed for 7 yrs till I got chance to boast of myself anywhere as a Biochemist, got MS in Biochem and I'll continue to live biochemically grin Though I'm consideration going for pharmacology soon which is just another division of Biochemistry.

You just have to endure, the future is bright.

Of d greatest metabolites... Once a proud Nabsite! Truth needed to be told, biochemistry is one course that is too demanding..puting al dos structures of vitamins(cobalamin), studying how d phosphokinases wrks, relating d importance of enzymology to d real life cld be funny.. Putting dat aside, a 2.1 or 2.2 in bch makes u beta 4 d game,anytin less..itz simply a waste of one years in d ivory tower..d sleepness nite, hw bch turned me into a guy dat end up using glasses and an addict of lipton is what thing that wld lingers for long... My advice for any bch graduate is to go 4 wateva ur mind tells u..dnt 4get ur passion it matters... Lampe omoyele is the best graduating student in his set in unilag bt his doing fyn in marketing communication and brand expert..he sits on top of a multinational PZ Cussons as marketing manager of nutricima.....His calm mien makes you inquisitive.

Re: BIOCHEMISTS: Lets Meet Here Pls.. by imperiouxx(m): 8:18am On Sep 19, 2013

Also metabolism of macromolecules starts in 300L and ends in 400L. Biosynthesis of macromolecules and regulation of pathways are in 400L.

I omitted 100L because that's just general studies level. However, course outline will be given when you get in.

When you mean metabolism of macromolecules you mean, lets say carbohydrates sugars. do you mean glycolysis leading to synthesis pf pyruvate then followed by citric acid cycle and electron transport chain. Anybody have idea of nucleic acid metabolism (purines and pyrimidines). Hola

Yea, and how their products are channeled to various other pathways. Everything would be connected at 400L, then you see that the whole Biochemical reaction in cell is like an electric circuit board.

The NAs can be formed from or converted to TCA metabolites but their main fate is to make nucleotides/nucleosides/cofactors/vitamins/coenzymes.
