En savoir plus sur le livre

Continuing the tradition of its widely-praised previous editions, this text covers challenging concepts such as bioinformatics, bioenergetics, metabolism, enzyme kinetics, thermodynamics, membrane transport, cell signaling, regulatory mechanisms, transcription and translation, signal transduction, and DNA replication and recombination with appropriate depth and clarity. Key topics include a preview of the cell, the chemistry and macromolecules of the cell, and the structure and function of cells and organelles. It delves into bioenergetics, enzymes as life’s catalysts, and membrane structure and transport mechanisms. The book explores chemotrophic energy metabolism through glycolysis, fermentation, and aerobic respiration, as well as phototrophic energy metabolism via photosynthesis. It discusses the endomembrane system, signal transduction mechanisms in neurons, cytoskeletal systems, and cellular movement. Additional topics cover cell adhesion, extracellular structures, the structural basis of cellular information, the cell cycle, DNA replication, sexual reproduction, gene expression, and the regulation of gene expression. The text also addresses cancer cells and microscopy techniques, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in molecular biology.
