Biochemistry (4th ed.)

This biochemistry textbook is designed to communicate the fundamental principles governing the structure, function, and interactions of biological molecules to students encountering biochemistry for the ?rst time. We aim to bring an appreciation of biochemistry to a broad audience that includes undergraduates majoring in the life sciences, physical sciences, or premedical programs, as well as medical students and graduate students in the various health sciences for whom biochemistry is an important route to understanding human physiology. To make this subject matter more relevant and interesting to all readers, we emphasize, where appropriate, the biochemistry of humans.
