Biochemistry, Volume 1&2, Second Edition: The Chemical Reactions of Living Cells

The most comprehensive textbook/reference ever to cover the chemical basis of life, the "Green Bible of Biochemistry" has been a well-respected contribution to the field for more than twenty years. The complex structures that make up cells are described in detail, along with the forces that hold them together, and the chemical reactions that allow for recognition, signaling and movement. There is ample information on the human body, its genome, and the action of muscles, eyes, and the brain. The complete set deals with the natural world, treating the metabolism of bacteria, toxins, antibiotics, specialized compounds made by plants, photosynthesis, luminescence of fireflies, among many other topics. \* The most comprehensive biochemistry text reference available on the market\* Organized into two volumes, comprising 32 chapters and containing the latest research in the field\* Biological content is emphasized: for example, macromolecular structures and enzyme action are discussed Cover_front.jpeg......Page p0001.djvu TOC.pdf......Page p0002.djvu v1Ch01.pdf......Page p0004.djvu v1Ch02.pdf......Page p0042.djvu v1Ch03.pdf......Page p0098.djvu v1Ch04.pdf......Page p0163.djvu v1Ch05.pdf......Page p0201.djvu v1Ch06.pdf......Page p0283.djvu v1Ch07.pdf......Page p0327.djvu v1Ch08.pdf......Page p0381.djvu v1Ch09.pdf......Page p0457.djvu v1Ch10.pdf......Page p0507.djvu v1Ch11.pdf......Page p0537.djvu v1Ch12.pdf......Page p0591.djvu v1Ch13.pdf......Page p0679.djvu v1Ch14.pdf......Page p0721.djvu v1Ch15.pdf......Page p0767.djvu v1Ch16.pdf......Page p0839.djvu v1Ch16In.pdf......Page p0908.djvu v2Ch17.pdf......Page p0941.djvu v2Ch18.pdf......Page p1015.djvu v2Ch19.pdf......Page p1091.djvu v2Ch20.pdf......Page p1131.djvu v2Ch21.pdf......Page p1183.djvu v2Ch22.pdf......Page p1229.djvu v2Ch23.pdf......Page p1275.djvu v2Ch24.pdf......Page p1361.djvu v2Ch25.pdf......Page p1423.djvu v2Ch26.pdf......Page p1475.djvu v2Ch27.pdf......Page p1531.djvu v2Ch28.pdf......Page p1605.djvu v2Ch29.pdf......Page p1671.djvu v2Ch30.pdf......Page p1743.djvu v2Ch31.pdf......Page p1833.djvu v2Ch32.pdf......Page p1881.djvu v2Ch32In.pdf......Page p1920.djvu Biochemistry: The Chemical Reactions Of Living Cells Is A Well-integrated, Up-to-date Reference For Basic Biochemistry, Associated Chemistry, And Underlying Biological Phenomena.
