Abstract: Guided by the principle of “integrating science and education, collaboratively cultivating talent”, this paper explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with biochemistry teaching and research. It examines the application of AI technology in the reform of biochemistry education, specifically through the development of a case study in biomedical engineering that predicts the functional effects of gene mutations using AI. The paper discusses the design and implementation of this AI-driven teaching case, focusing on the case’s background, curriculum design, teaching strategies, and evaluation of its impact. This approach aims to cultivate interdisciplinary thinking in students, enhancing their ability to integrate knowledge across fields.

Key words: Biochemistry, Case teaching, Gene mutation, Functional effect, Artificial intelligence
