Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Institutes of Health Lectures in Biomedical Sciences: Current Topics in Biochemistry is based on a series of lectures dealing with current topics in biochemistry and more biologically or medically oriented topics. These lectures were organized for the benefit of young physicians who had just finished their clinical training but were several years out-of-date with respect to basic scientific research. The lecturers were asked, therefore, to present not only their own contributions to the field but also a broad review of recent developments in a large area of science. The lectures were surprisingly well attended not only by the associates for whom they had originally been designed but also by a large fraction of the NIH research community, specialists and nonspecialists alike. The lectures in this volume cover the following topics: genetic control of lipid metabolism; mammalian RNA-containing tumor viruses; current directions in research on cyclic AMP; the chemistry and biology of collagen; properties of the protein complex of striated muscle involved in the contractile process; cell surface receptor sites; and membrane structure and function.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current Topics in Biochemistry 1973 is based on a series of lectures held at the National Institutes of Health dealing with biochemistry. This group of lectures is the most recent in a program, which was established in the mid-1960s, to review various research fields for the scientific community at the Institutes. The topics for these series were chosen to emphasize active fields of general interest for a diverse audience of scientists. The speakers were therefore encouraged to present an overview of their fields rather than a detailed discussion of current research problems. The lectures in present collection cover the following topics: the problem of predicting the conformation of a protein from a knowledge of its amino acid sequence; studies on the structure of glutamic dehydrogenase; immunologic approaches to the study of proteins; the NIH shift and its implications for the mechanism of biological oxidations; separation of transcribable and repressed chromatin; gene expression in animal cells; and plasma lipoproteins and apolipoproteins.

Download or read book Biochemistry written by John T. Tansey and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biochemistry: An Integrative Approach with Expanded Topics is addressed to premed, biochemistry, and life science majors taking a two-semester biochemistry course. This version includes all 25 chapters, offering a holistic approach to learning biochemistry. An integrated, skill-focused approach to the study of biochemistry and metabolism Biochemistry integrates subjects of interest to undergraduates majoring in premed, biochemistry, life science, and beyond, while preserving a chemical perspective. Respected biochemistry educator John Tansey takes a unique approach to the subject matter, emphasizing problem solving and critical thinking over rote memorization. Key concepts such as metabolism, are introduced and then revisited and cross-referenced throughout the text to establish pattern recognition and help students commit their new knowledge to long-term memory. As part of WileyPLUS, Biochemistry includes access to video walkthroughs of worked problems, interactive elements, and expanded end-of-chapter problems with a wide range of subject matter and difficulty. Students will have access to both qualitative and quantitative worked problems, and videos model the biochemical reasoning students will need to master. This approach helps students learn to analyze data and make critical assessments of experiments—key skills for success across scientific disciplines. Introduces students in scientific majors to the basics of biochemistry and metabolism Integrates and synthesizes topics throughout the text, allowing students to learn through repetition and pattern recognition Emphasizes problem solving and reasoning skills essential to life sciences, including data analysis and research assessment Provides access to video walkthroughs of worked problems, interactive features, and additional study material through WileyPLUS This volume covers DNA, RNA, gene regulation, synthetic proteins, omics, plant biochemistry, and more. With this text, students studying a range of disciplines are empowered to develop a lasting foundation in biochemistry and metabolism that will serve them as they advance through their careers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of Current Topics in Membranes focuses on metal transmembrane transporters and pumps, a recently discovered family of membrane proteins with many important roles in the physiology of living organisms. The book summarizes the most recent advances in the field of metal ion transport and provides a broad overview of the major classes of transporters involved in homeostasis of heavy metals. Various families of the transporters and metal specificities are discussed with the focus on the structural and mechanistic aspects of their function and regulation. The reader will access information obtained through a variety of approaches ranging from X-ray crystallography to cell biology and bioinformatics, which have been applied to transporters identified in diverse biological systems, such as pathogenic bacteria, plants, humans and others. Field is cutting-edge and a lot of the information is new to research community Wide breadth of topic coverage Contributors of high renown and expertise

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic and cellular technologies in life science have recently achieved remarkable progress, and thus the roles of biochemical engineers have also been changed to incorporate the use of new technology. Therefore, this book deals with current topics in biochemical engineering. The chapters of this book discuss research that has introduced artificial enzymes, kinetic models in bioprocessing, a small-scale production process, and production of energy with microbial fuel. These chapters offer novel ideas for the production of effective compounds and energy. Moreover, other research has introduced the production technology of stem cells and biomedical processes using nanoshells and extracellular vesicles. These chapters will provide novel ideas to produce effective compounds and develop therapies for various diseases.
