Proteins
Proteins: Concepts in Biochemistry teaches the biochemical concepts underlying protein structure, evolution, stability and folding, and explains how interactions with macromolecular structures determine protein function. Intended for a one-semester biochemistry course with a focus on proteins, this textbook emphasizes the logic underlying biophysical chemical principles. Problems throughout the book encourage statistical and quantitative thinking. The text is ideal for senior undergraduates, first year graduate students, and practitioners in chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and biophysics.
Basic Concepts in Biochemistry
A new addition to the PreTest product line, this review book covers only those topics in biochemistry which, through the author's experience, market research and in-depth reviewing were viewed by medical students as being most difficult to comprehend. The text is organized by general concepts, which are then subdivided in order of increasing complexity. Each section begins with a short summary of key points. The book's unique approach stresses the mastering of fundamental concepts instead of just the memorization of facts. Thus the student is encouraged to reason through problems, and to better retain what he/she learns in the course. This text can be used in concert with the sixth edition of PreTest Biochemistry to form an excellent review source for students taking biochemistry exams or Part I of the National Board Exam.
Concepts in Biochemistry
Intended for the one-semester, sophomore/junior level course, Boyer's text is written for a range of majors including Chemistry, Biology, Food Science, Agriculture, Pharmacy, and Environmental Studies. It is also appropriate for use in one-term Biochemistry courses now required for certification by the American Chemical Society. Prerequisites for the course include General and Organic Chemistry. Boyer enhances the understanding of biological processes by initiating the study of Biochemistry with nucleic acids, especially DNA, playing a more central role. Other biomolecules are treated as direct or indirect products. It is an approach that captures the student's attention by giving them a current and practical sense of Biochemistry and presenting applications that can be used in their careers. This focus makes the text particularly relevant for students in allied health, agriculture, and related programs. An accompanying interactive CD ROM/Web site provides additional opportunity for study and enrichment. It contains Animations, Concept Reviews, Cutting Edge Biochemistry Materials, and Structural Tutorials.
