These notes cover amino acids and proteins in depth. They cover polar and nonpolar effects of amino acids proteins in three-dimensional structure, how shape determines function, protein structure, and protein folding. There are two mind maps included that are there to help you make sense of the concepts and how they relate with one another.

These notes do not cover specifics on enzyme kinetics, but rather the basic concepts of enzymes and enzyme action. They cover the types of enzymes, cofactors needed for activity, Gibbs free energy, the importance of the transition state, binding energy, and transition state analogs. There is also a mind map included to help you make sense of the concepts.

These notes cover the basics of enzymes kinetics including: reaction rates, michaelis menten kinetics/enzymes, the lineweaver burk equation, kM and Kcat, Vmax, allosteric enzymes, feedback inhibition, and negative/positive effectors. Allosterics are a very important part of enzyme kinetics and you'll find lots of good information about that in these notes. A mind map is also included to help you better understand how all of the concepts come together,
