Understanding the relationship between protein structure and function can be challenging for students. Molecular visualization software aids students in this problem by allowing manipulation of structures from new and deeper perspectives. In this communication, an activity using iMolview Lite, structure visualization software for portable devices,…

Terrell, Cassidy R.; Ekstrom, Thomas; Nguyen, Brian; Nickodem, Kyle – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2021
Biochemistry curricula present a particular challenge to undergraduate students with abstract concepts which can lead to misconceptions that impede learning. In particular, these students have difficulty understanding enzyme structure and function concepts. Targeted learning activities and three-dimensional (3D) physical models are proposed to…

Polcic, Peter – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
In biochemistry, the trivial names of chemical compounds constitute a significant part of scientific language. Understanding the etymology of the names may be important for the association of these names with actual compounds and thus be a valuable teaching tool. The citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle) is a central metabolic pathway in most living…

Metabolic control analysis (MCA) is a promising approach in biochemistry aimed at understanding processes in a quantitative fashion. Here the contribution of enzymes and transporters to the control of a given pathway flux and metabolite concentrations is determined and expressed quantitatively by means of numerical coefficients. Metabolic flux can…

Cardamone, Carie; Linder, Deborah A.; Knoll, Joyce S.; Webster, Cynthia R. L.; Murray, Maureen; Frank, Nicholas; Shorter, Brittain; Heinze, Cailin R.; Schonhoff, Christopher M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
Large lecture courses are an efficient way to convey material to many students but have potential limitations, most notably the tendency for them to promote passive learning opportunities rather than active pedagogies. The curriculum at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University, like many veterinary schools, contains many large…

A renovation incorporated Innovative Learning Environments' design principles. The exploratory study used a Basic Mixed Method, Convergent Parallel Research Design. Behavioral observations and photographic tracing, two surveys (pre- and post-intervention), interviews, and instrument testing. Overall findings: (a) students and educators are excited…

Van Haute, Michael; Monzon, Jan David – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2023
While the innovativeness of the flipped classroom (FC) approach promotes active participation and higher-order thinking among students, there are concerns about its effectiveness in terms of knowledge retention. Currently, there are no studies involving medical school biochemistry that evaluate this aspect of effectiveness. Thus, we conducted a…

Stewart, John F.; Gustafson, John E.; Moore, Michael E.; Forshee, J. Lance; Canaan, Patricia; French, Donald P. – American Biology Teacher, 2023
Students who experience research as undergraduates tend to remain in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields. Since course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) are often expensive to implement, we developed a relatively inexpensive first-semester research course for majors entitled "Freshman Research in…

Kerwin, Sean M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2019
A flexible and modular peptide modeling set was designed using freely available software tools. The set consists of space-filling models of all 20 naturally occurring amino acid side chains and a modular kit for constructing peptides employing C-alpha carbons and amide bond groups. Connectors that allow free rotation about phi and psi angles on…

Rodriguez, Jon-Marc G.; Towns, Marcy H. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Analogies are useful tools instructors can use to help make challenging concepts less abstract by drawing connections to familiar contexts. In this paper we provide an overview of the various analogies published in the education literature that are situated in the context of enzyme kinetics, including narrative-based analogies (analogies intended…

Clark, Daniel D. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2019
A homologous pair of stereospecific NAD-dependent enzymes, (R)- and (S)-hydroxypropyl-coenzyme M dehydrogenase, are part of a bacterial pathway of short-chain alkene and epoxide metabolism. Their discovery and study, which spans multiple publications over more than a decade, is a data rich story that combines both classical and contemporary…

Collings, David A.; Gerrard, Juliet A.; Garrill, Ashley – Journal of Biological Education, 2019
While most studies concerning how Universities respond to crises are based on simulations, we describe how the University of Canterbury responded to a real crisis, a series of major seismic events that caused significant disruption in 2010/2011. We focus on a single, first-year undergraduate biology course in which we modified our teaching…

García-Ponce, Ángel Luis; Martínez-Poveda, Beatriz; Blanco-López, Ángel; Medina, Miguel Ángel; Quesada, Ana R. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2019
The enzymatic determination of glucose in soft drinks, based on the glucose concentration measurement by means of the coupled reactions of glucose oxidase and peroxidase, has been implemented at the University of Malaga and optimized according to the Biochemistry and Chemistry undergraduate students' results and feedback throughout the last few…

Kong, Sunnie; Kumta, Shruti; Vardar-Ulu, Didem – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2022
The COVID-19 pandemic emphasized the importance of peer communication networks for student outcomes. Herein, we describe the use of supplemental instructional videos created by former students and integrated into electronic lab notebooks, to restore the lost community-learning component using student voices in a de-densified upper-division…

Gellisch, Morris; Wolf, Oliver T.; Minkley, Nina; Kirchner, Wolfgang H.; Brüne, Martin; Brand-Saberi, Beate – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
To examine the implications of the transition from face-to-face to online learning from a psychobiological perspective, this study investigated potential differences in physiological stress parameters of students engaged in online or face-to-face learning and determined whether these can be identified as possible mediators between learning…
