Biogenesis of natural products (BCM WP 26)
Competencies
After successfully completing the module, students will be able to
- structurally analyze and classify complex natural substances and secondary metabolites within a comprehensive framework.
- develop retrobiosyntheses, even for highly complex natural products.
- describe individual biosynthesis stages using enzyme mechanisms.
- formulate mixed biosyntheses of hybrid natural products.
- compare biosyntheses with chemical syntheses.
- establish connections between the characteristic properties and the possible (bio)synthesis pathways.
