Biochemical Pathways

Beschreibung

The pathways and networks underlying biologicalfunction Now in its second edition, Biochemical Pathways continuesto garner praise from students, instructors, and researchers forits clear, full-color illustrations of the pathways and networksthat determine biological function. Biochemical Pathways examines the biochemistry ofbacteria, plants, and animals. It offers a quick overview of themetabolic sequences in biochemical pathways, the chemistry andenzymology of conversions, the regulation of turnover, theexpression of genes, the immunological interactions, and themetabolic background of health disorders. A standard set ofconventions is used in all illustrations, enabling readers toeasily gather information and compare the key elements of differentbiochemical pathways. For both quick and in-depth understanding,the book uses a combination of: * Illustrations integrating many different features of thereactions and their interrelationships * Tables listing the important system components and theirfunction * Text supplementing and expanding on the illustrated facts In the second edition, the volume has been expanded by 50percent. Text and figures have undergone a thorough revision andupdate, reflecting the tremendous progress in biochemical knowledgein recent years. A guide to the relevant biochemical databasesfacilitates access to the extensive documentation of scientificknowledge. Biochemical Pathways, Second Edition is recommended forall students and researchers in such fields as biochemistry,molecular biology, medicine, organic chemistry, and pharmacology.The book's illustrated pathways aids the reader in understandingthe complex set of biochemical reactions that occur in biologicalsystems. From the reviews: "... highly recommended for every scientist and studentworking in biochemistry." -Umwelt & Gesundheit4/2012 (review in German language)

"Michal and Schomburg (Technische Univ.Carolo-Whilhelmina, Germany) have reorganized, updated, and greatlyexpanded (over 100 pages of new content) this unique resource,keeping it an essential biochemical reference. Summing Up:Essential. Biochemistry collections, upper-division undergraduatesthrough professionals." (Choice, 1 August2013) "Biochemical Pathways, Second Edition is recommended forall students and researchers in such fields as biochemistry,molecular biology, medicine, organic chemistry, and pharmacology.The book's illustrated pathways aids the reader in understandingthe complex set of biochemical reactions that occur in biologicalsystems." (Kingbook73.blogspot, 23 April2013) "This book, not too scary to read thanks to its compactsize, served as a great reading for the incoming graduate studentsfrom the biology department and the chemical engineering departmentalike."
