Synopsis

Using colour graphics, this text focuses on fundamental and particular aspects of human and mammalian biochemistry. Besides coverage of the structure and composition of biologically relevant molecules and their metabolism, it also includes the interlinking of chemical structures with biological functions, how molecules are arranged in cellular spaces and in the organism, and the evolution of biochemical processes. The book should be of interest to all students and professionals in medicine, biochemistry, chemistry, biology and dentistry.

About this title

From the Back Cover

Totally revised and expanded, Color Atlas of Biochemistry presents the fundamentals of human and mammalian biochemistry on 215 stunning color plates.

Alongside a short introduction to chemistry and the classical topics of biochemistry, the second edition covers new approaches and aspects in biochemistry, such as links between chemical structure and biological function or pathways for information transfer, as well as recent developments and discoveries, such as the structures of many new important molecules.

Key features include:

• The unique combination of highly effective color graphics and comprehensive figure legends
• Unified color-coding of atoms, coenzymes, chemical classes, and cell organelles that allows quick recognition of all involved systems
• Computer graphics provide simulated 3D representation of many important molecules

This Flexibook is ideal for students of medicine and biochemistry and a valuable source of reference for practitioners.
