Biochemistry - Charles Grisham

. .

Résumé :
Ideal for readers encountering biochemistry for the first time, Garrett and Grisham�s BIOCHEMISTRY, Seventh Edition, makes even complex course concepts more accessible while revealing the beauty and usefulness of biochemistry in the everyday world. This engaging text illuminates the fundamental principles governing the structure, function and interactions of biological molecules, providing a solid foundation in biochemistry whether you are an undergraduate majoring in life sciences, chemistry or premedical programs, or a medical or graduate health sciences student seeking a deeper understanding of human physiology. Updated to reflect tremendous recent developments in biochemistry, the Seventh Edition features new and revised material and presentations throughout the text, incorporating additional content while maintaining a balanced and streamlined presentation. In addition, the authors emphasize the interrelationships of ideas to help you appreciate the overarching questions of biochemistry. The text is also integrated with OWLv2, a powerful online learning system for chemistry with text-specific end-of-chapter material to help you improve your grades and master course concepts.

Biographie:
Reginald H. Garrett was educated in the Baltimore city public schools and at the Johns Hopkins University, where he received his Ph.D. in biology in 1968. Since that time, he has conducted research and taught biochemistry courses at the University of Virginia, where he is currently Professor of Biology. He is the author of numerous papers and review articles on biochemical, genetic, and molecular biological aspects of inorganic nitrogen metabolism. His early research focused on the pathway of nitrate assimilation in filamentous fungi. His investigations contributed substantially to our understanding of the enzymology, genetics, and regulation of this major pathway of biological nitrogen acquisition. More recently, he has collaborated in systems approaches to the metabolic basis of nutrition-related diseases. His research has been supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and private industry. A member of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Garrett is a former Fulbright Scholar, was twice Visiting Scholar at the University of Cambridge, and was Invited Professor at the University of Toulouse, France.
