Sommaire:
t fully understand human energy consumption at the molecular level. Biochemistry Primer for Exercise Science, Fifth Edition, offers students a fundamental understanding of how biochemical processes underpin physical activity, performance, and overall health.

Reflecting the rapid development of the field, this foundational text continues to present the essentials of biochemistry-molecular biology, basic chemistry, metabolism, and transcription regulation-in an easy-to-understand format. With new and updated illustrations, the fifth edition features the most recent research in exercise biochemistry and contains new and expanded content on the following topics:

• The structure, expression, interactions, and adaptations of proteins in the body (proteomics)
• Muscle contraction and fatigue
• The regulation of gene expression in health and disease
• Control of biochemical and muscular adaptations to exercise and training through signaling pathways
• The basics of signaling mechanisms associated with different types of exercise and adaptations to different forms of exercise training
• New and developing research areas highlighted through Next Stage sidebars
