Full-time form

"Bioinorganic Chemistry" is an integral part of the cycle of professional training of specialists of the educational-qualification level "Bachelor", needs the successful mastery of "Inorganic Chemistry", "Chemistry of Coordination Compounds", and selected sections of physical and organic chemistry.

An introductory course that provides a basic level to become well grounded in the field of Bioinorganic Chemistry and to critically investigate scientific publications in this field of science. This course concentrates, first of all, on the following topics - study of coordinate-chemical properties of vital metals and their forms of location and behavior in biological systems, examination of the types of interactions of transition metal ions with major ligand systems in living organisms (proteins and nucleic acids and their constituents), certain transport processes (transfer and storage of oxygen and iron), the concept of the role of metal ions in catalytic processes, etc.
