This course provides an introduction to metabolism at the molecular level. The content will be presented in the context of the normal, exercise and disease states. Applications and examples are drawn from current research areas with an emphasis on the metabolic syndrome. The course will build on and extend knowledge gained in the second level course BIOC2000 and will include the modern discipline areas of metabolomics and nutrigenomics. Core topics include aspects of carbohydrate, lipid, protein and amino acid metabolism built around the theme of obesity and the metabolic syndrome as an exemplar of the application of modern knowledge gained through our understanding of the genome and metabolome. The course will show how knowledge from these disciplines aids in our understanding of this health problem affecting many world-wide. The course is designed for those students who are interested or planning careers in the biomedical area, including health science, exercise science, nutrition/dietetics, food science and the biological sciences more broadly.
Cells can only function if energy is available to them. An important part of metabolism is understanding the pathways by which the cell obtains energy (bioenergetics) and how nutrients are interconverted to generate energy or the building blocks for our own body constituents. This course covers the main metabolic pathways that are associated with carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism in cells and tissues. The pathways interact and are integrated so that we can store energy in times of plenty and use energy from stores when there is no food available. We will focus on the hormones that contribute to this integration. Not only hormones but also the gut microbiota contribute to the regulation of metabolism and we look at the interactions between the host and microbiota. We then use this knowledge to understand how metabolism is altered in common conditions such as obesity, diabetes and liver disease as well as in pregnancy.
The course will be presented primarily as lectures supplementedᅠ by tutorialᅠs and workshops (including computer-based practicals) and a ᅠshort series of laboratory practicals focused on metabolic research.

Aims and outcomes
This course provides an advanced understanding of metabolic processes and their regulation at systems, cellular and molecular levels. The focus is on placing core metabolic principles and knowledge in the context of lifestyle diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus and the metabolic syndrome. We consider the question "why is this such a prominent health problem?". This is an exceptionally complex question that forms an excellent focus for lectures, discussion groups and laboratory-based activities. The course also aims to introduce students to modern metabolic research methods in microbiome analysis.

Deferral or extension
You cannot defer or apply for an extension for this assessment.
Applications for Extensions
Information on applying for an extension can be found here: my.UQ Applying for an extension.
Extension applications must be received by the assessment due date and time.
If you are unable to provide approved documentation to support your application by the due date and time, you must still submit your application by the deadline but with an attached Word document that outlines why you cannot provide the approved documentation by the deadline. You will then need to acquire and upload the approved documentation to your request within 24 hours. Please note: When an extension request has been submitted and is pending, students are expected to continue to work on the assessment item, with the aim of submitting by the requested due date and time.
Prolonged Absence
If you have been ill or unable to attend class for more than 14 days, we advise you to carefully consider whether you are capable of successfully completing your courses this semester.
Extensions with Student Access Plans (SAP)
For extensions up to 7 days, your SAP is all that is required as documentation to support your application. However, extension requests longer than 7 days (for any one assessment item) will require the submission of additional supporting documentation e.g. a medical certificate.
Late submission
A penalty of 10% of the maximum possible mark will be deducted per 24 hours from time submission is due for up to 7 days. After 7 days, you will receive a mark of 0.
You are required to submit assessable items on time. If you fail to meet the submission deadline for any assessment item, then 10% of the maximum possible mark for the assessment item (assessment ‘marked from’ value) will be deducted as a late penalty for every day (or part day) late after the due date. For example, if you submit your assignment 1 hour late, you will be penalised 10%; if your assignment is 24.5 hours late, you will be penalised 20% (because it is late by one 24-hour period plus part of another 24-hour period). 10% will be deducted per day for up to 7 calendar days, at which point your submission will receive a mark of zero (0) unless an extension has been approved.
In most instances one or more hurdles will apply to your assessment item so you will need to submit it to fulfil the requirements of the course regardless of how late it is and the mark you are likely to be awarded.

Task description
16S rRNA sequencing is a common method to analyse the bacterial community making up the gut microbiota. This practical is designed to provide students with a practical understanding of the workflow and complexities of microbiome analysis and to enable you to critically judge microbiome research that you encounter in other contexts. Students will analyse samples obtained from rodents with different health conditions and varying dietary intake patterns. As a result of these conditions, the composition of the microbiota changes and conclusions may be drawn about the relationship between the microbiome and metabolic health. Students will start with an OTU (operational taxonomic unit) table and an accompanying mapping file that will be analysed with different statistical methods to identify features that are common and/or specific to various metabolic states.
ATTENDANCE AT THE FIRST OF THE TWO COMPUTER PRACTICALS IS COMPULSORY. If you have finished your analyses and do not need the support before the second workshop, you do not have to attend this workshop. Please note that support will only be provided in the workshops.
Students will analyse these data individually and independently and then present these in an individual report that includes a detailed discussion of the results and biological/physiological interpretation.
