Biochemistry

Product Description Biochemistry deals with the study of the structure and function of cellular components; proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules. Although there are a vast number of different biomolecules, they tend to be composed of the same repeating subunits in different orders. The first section of this book includes the structure of biomolecules; carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, proteins, enzymes, vitamins, hormones, alkaloids, prostaglandins, and nucleic acids. Section two discusses the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids and inborn metabolic disorders and section three offers coverage on gene concept and gene expression. Subsequently, the final section deals with the essential techniques commonly used in biochemistry; chromatography, spectrophotometry and electrophoresis - establishing Biochemistry as an interesting and comprehensive guide encompassing the field.
