Molecular Medical Biochemistry (Hardcover)

This book puts the emphasis on topics (membrane structure and function, hormone action and secretion) where current knowledge of macromolecular and cellular structure and function is likely to contribute most to understanding the underlying pathology of common multifactorial diseases. The book also outlines the basic features of recombinant DNA techniques and the impact they are likely to have in the diagnosis, treatment and knowledge of disease processes. The text also aims to bring the developments in cell and molecular biology to the attention of undergraduates taking courses in biochemistry.
