Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology – Daphne C. Elliott

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology covers topics of current special interest as well as more traditional areas in biochemistry. There is an emphasis on biological aspects of biochemistry and new topics are introduced in their biological context wherever possible. As well as presenting core material on the structure of proteins and membranes, metabolism, and information storage and utilization, the text also surveys the immune system, viruses and viroids, and the disparate enzymic protective mechanisms in the body. Areas of special current importance such as metabolic regulation, cell-cell signalling, and control of gene expression are given appropriate emphasis in separate chapters.
