Publisher's Synopsis
Biochemistry and molecular biology are closely-related disciplines which study the chemical components of living cells, including the genetic material, in order to understand biological processes and how these are altered in disease. At its most fundamental level, the study of life is the study of chemical processes. Biochemistry is the science in which chemistry is applied to the study of living organisms and the atoms and molecules which comprise living organisms. Biochemistry is the study of the chemistry of living things. This includes organic molecules and their chemical reactions. Most people consider biochemistry to be synonymous with molecular biology. Hence, biochemistry focuses on processes happening at a molecular level. It focuses on what's happening inside our cells, studying components like proteins, lipids and organelles. It also looks at how cells communicate with each other, for example during growth or fighting illness. Biochemists need to understand how the structure of a molecule relates to its function, allowing them to predict how molecules will interact. Biochemistry covers a range of scientific disciplines, including genetics, microbiology, forensics, plant science and medicine. Because of its breadth, biochemistry is very important and advances in this field of science over the past 100 years have been staggering. Molecular Biology methods are used to study the molecular and cell biology including structural and functional genomics, biomedicine, molecular enzymology, molecular virology and molecular immunology, theoretical bases of biotechnology, physics and physical chemistry of proteins and nucleic acids, manipulation and analysis of DNA, RNA, protein, and lipid. Molecular Biology methods used to study the molecular basis of biological activity. Most commonly used methods are protein methods, immunostaining methods, nucleic acid methods. These methods used to explore cells, their characteristics, parts, and chemical processes, and pays special attention to how molecules control a cell's activities and growth. The aim of Methods and Techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology is to facilitate rapid dissemination of novel discoveries and findings in biochemistry and molecular biology. The book introduces a comprehensive way to the exciting and rapidly developing field of biochemical and biophysical methods. This book is a compilation of research papers in biochemistry and molecular biology as well as review articles and hypothesis. It includes structural & functional studies of biomolecules, structural & functional biology, clinical and medical biochemistry, cellular & molecular biology, molecular immunology, biochemical pathways and mechanisms, genetic studies, RNA and protein expression and regulation, molecular pharmacology, transcriptomics, enzymology, biophysics, contemporary areas of molecular biology such as studies on replication, repair, recombination, transcription, mutation, coding and non-coding RNA, genomics, proteomics, etc. Biochemistry and molecular biology are closely-related disciplines which study the chemical components of living cells, including the genetic material, in order to understand biological processes and how these are altered in disease.
