This is a PDF
designed by the College of Agriculture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Department of
Biochemistry: It serves as an elementary source in understanding the chemistry
of living organisms as it covers major foundational topics like a history of
biochemistry, plant cell structures, organelles, proteins, enzymes, fatty acids,
and nucleic acids. By explaining life processes at a molecular level, it equips
students with the required knowledge that will make them able to understand
interactions at levels which govern biological systems. The material is tailored
for the student studying biochemistry; therefore, it gives a comprehensive
overview of the respective concepts and their significances in agriculture and
biology.

This extensive
PDF by Charles University addresses pertinent questions with regard to clinical
biochemistry, covering the influence of pre-analytical factors on the situation
within laboratory examinations and the determination of reference values. It
comprises analytical properties, quality control, and diagnostic sensitivity in
a broad range of tests-from kidney function to plasma proteins and assays for
electrolytes. The book deals with the metabolic functions of calcium,
phosphorus, magnesium, and trace elements and emphasizes thyroid and adrenal
hormones. Additional topics discussed include acid-base disorders, lipids in
blood serum, and their significance for atherosclerosis and free radicals.
This Boston University course teaches biochemical concepts online,
covering the fundamentals of chemistry, biology, and related disciplines. Key
areas include major molecular components of life, thermodynamics, proteins,
enzymes, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. The course also elucidates
the functions of vitamins and coenzymes in metabolism. It interlinks various
scientific fields with biochemical principles and their applications in medicine
and research. Thus, this makes it an important resource for those aspiring to be
professional biochemists.
This
educational note from Annamalai University deals with the basic concepts in
biochemistry: carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, nucleic acids, lipoproteins,
and lipid metabolism. It stresses biological properties of proteins, metabolic
pathways by fats and proteins, and functions of enzymes. The material structured
in understanding biomolecules will explain the significant principles of
biochemistry and how the principles are applicable in biological systems. This
book resource is apt for the beginner biochemistry student; it is simply so
solid and foundational that once grasped, the concepts can take students further
in the field.
Deeply based on Western Oregon University, this online resource
explains foundational concepts of biochemistry such as protein structure, DNA,
RNA, and the human genome in depth. The paper goes on to elucidate enzyme
principles and catalytic mechanisms and regulatory aspects of proteins. The text
then discusses DNA replication, transcription, RNA processing, and mechanisms of
DNA repair and transcriptional control. In this chapter, the reader will achieve
a broad overview which, for students, will empower them with a good basis of
biochemical principles that underpin life at the molecular level; it forms a
very important background study for students pursuing biochemistry and related
disciplines.
