COURSE OUTCOMES
CO1
REMEMBERING
Recall concepts of microbial metabolism, biosynthesis, and metabolic regulation.
CO2
UNDERSTANDING
Explain catabolic pathways (EMP, ED, PPP, TCA, fermentation) and mechanisms of energy generation in microbes.
CO3
APPLYING
Apply knowledge of metabolic pathways to interpret microbial energy strategies under aerobic/anaerobic/fermentative conditions.
CO4
ANALYZING
Analyze metabolic regulation (allosteric, covalent modification, energy charge) and fuelling reactions in heterotrophs, chemolithotrophs, and phototrophs.
CO5
EVALUATING
Evaluate biosynthetic pathways of carbohydrates, lipids, nucleotides, and nitrogen/sulphur assimilation in cellular metabolism.
CO6
CREATING
Design experimental approaches (enzyme assays, isotope labelling, mutants, biosensors) to study metabolic and biosynthetic pathways.
