Integrating Biochemistry and Metabolism: A Skill-Focused Approach

By John T. Tansey, a renowned biochemistry educator, this book offers a unique approach to the study of biochemistry and metabolism. It is designed for undergraduates majoring in premed, biochemistry, life science, and related fields. The book emphasizes problem-solving and critical thinking over rote memorization, making it an essential resource for students looking to develop a lasting foundation in biochemistry and metabolism.

Key Features

Integrated and Skill-Focused: This book integrates subjects of interest to undergraduates, preserving a chemical perspective while emphasizing problem-solving and critical thinking. Key concepts such as metabolism are introduced and revisited throughout the text to establish pattern recognition and help students commit their new knowledge to long-term memory.

WileyPLUS Access: 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.

Volume 2: DNA, RNA, Gene Regulation, and More

Volume 2 of Biochemistry contains chapters 13-25, covering essential topics such as DNA, RNA, gene regulation, synthetic proteins, omics, plant biochemistry, and more. This comprehensive coverage empowers students to develop a deep understanding of biochemistry and metabolism, preparing them for success in their future careers.

Why This Book?

Biochemistry is more than just a textbook; it’s a tool for learning and mastering the skills necessary for success in the life sciences. By emphasizing problem-solving and critical thinking, this book helps students learn to analyze data, make critical assessments of experiments, and develop a lasting foundation in biochemistry and metabolism.
