About this title

Synopsis

Designed primarily for undergraduate courses and review, the Instant Notes series provides an affordable solution to the problem of information overload. Instant Notes gives the student easy access to the key facts in a format designed for ease of use and rapid revision. Illustrated with simple diagrams which are easy to remember and reproduce, each section of the book begins with a set of key topics which act as triggers for recollection. Topics covered in this volume on biochemistry include cells and their structure, amino acids and proteins, enzymes, antibodies, membrane structure and function, DNA structure and replication, RNA synthesis and processing, protein synthesis and modification, recombinant DNA technology, carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, respiration and energy, nitrogen metabolism, and cell specialization. The book is designed to be a required or recommended text in courses such as biochemistry, cell or molecular biology. It is also an excellent background or review text for courses such as macromolecules, proteins, nucleic acids, or other subjects that assume familiarity with basic biochemistry.
