wow this professor writes really fast!

fuck going to MIT. …
going to MIT. if this guy continues to post his lectures I might just earn a degree by watching youtube!

How old are students who are listening this?

Why? It’s just …
Why? It’s just constructive criticism. Talking about peptide bonds and proteins you cannot omit the crucial resonance structures. A mention of Ramachandran plots also would be very useful.

Mesomery is not an …
Mesomery is not an English expression, sorry for that. For you it’s resonance and resonance structures.

Americas elite …
Americas elite don’t necessarily go to MIT. Most top students go where they can get scholarship money first. However, I would say that US medical schools no matter the name have elite students though. If you are talking elite as in money, then MIT is a good place for science. I know a guy who went to MIT who was pretty bright. I get good grades myself, but don’t like my school because there are a lot of foreign professors, and some of them are very hard to understand.

Ambassador molari … You are right, but you’re still annoying -,-

Is the term Henderson – Hasselbalch equation unknown in the US?

These students are …
These students are supposedly Americas elite. But we stupid Europeans at their level would ask why can a proton can be abstracted from the carboxylic group but not from the amino group the polarization is similar given the electronegativities of nitrogen and oxygen.
June 29th, 2009 at 6:12 am
He writes amino – …
He writes amino -NH2 and acid H+, he should have told someting about the carboxylic group -COOH and why it acts as a proton donor (stabilizing effect of mesomery). Mesomery is crucial to the explanation of a peptide bond.
But he’s a brilliant showman.

In German Zwitter means hermaphrodite. In solid state chemistry it would be very nice to show some gel electrophoresis and the connection to the isoelectric point.

Strange, some …
Strange, some things he’s telling we are teaching in Switzerland to grammar school students. A better depiction of the D – and L- form of amino acids would have been with the help of the Fischer – Projection. In solid state chemistry he could have shown chiral quarz crystals. A nice introduction to chirality is to show “enantiomeric” hop plants, tails of piglets, snail houses and cork screws.

hey is there lecture 31, and 32?
i need the biochem lectures
thx

Great Lecture, but may I point out the rather brutal mistake at 07:56 when he says oxygen for a hydrogen :-p

Isn’t it a very fortunate insight!.. we are lucky

I did a YT search for “Don’t Let’s Start”. How is this the first search result?

They can be found from the OCW website (on right), but they are audio only. It’s a shame, Lec 32 would have had batteries and fuel cells.
