Study Notes
Biochemistry Overview
- Biochemistry focuses on understanding the chemical processes and transformations that occur within living organisms.
- Biochemistry is closely related to molecular biology, as both fields overlap in their study of the molecular mechanisms of life.
- Biochemistry can be divided into three main fields: structural biology, enzymology, and metabolic pathways.
- Much of biochemistry deals with the chemical structures and reactions of biomolecules, such as proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids.
- Biochemistry has become successful at explaining the molecular mechanisms of various biological processes, including metabolism, signaling, and gene regulation.
