C. Stan Tsai Libros

Provides an integrated presentation of the structure and function of nucleic acids, proteins, and glycans, including the latest findings from the fields of genomics, proteomics, and glycomics. It serves as a bridge between introductory biochemistry textbooks and advanced treatises on individual classes of biomacromolecules. The integrated treatment of biomacromolecules enables the reader to gain a better understanding and appreciation of both the similarities and differences among the three classes of biomacromolecules examined in the text.

This comprehensive text offers a solid introduction to the biochemical principles and skills required for any researcher applying computational tools to practical problems in biochemistry. Each chapter includes an introduction to the topic, a review of the biological concepts involved, a discussion of the programming and applications used, key references, and problem sets and answers. Providing detailed coverage of biochemical structures, enzyme reactions, metabolic simulation, genomic and proteomic analyses, and molecular modeling, this is the perfect resource for students and researchers in biochemistry, bioinformatics, bioengineering and computational science.
