Chemical biology is a rapidly developing branch of chemistry, which sets out to understand the way biology works at the molecular level. Fundamental tochemical biology is a detailed understanding of the syntheses, structures and behaviours of biological macromolecules and macromolecular lipid assemblies that together represent the primary constituents of all cells and all organisms. The subject area ofchemical biology bridges many different disciplines and is fast becoming an integral part of academic and commercial research.
Essentials of Chemical Biology is designed specifically as a key teaching resource for chemical biology that is intended to build on the foundations laid down by introductory physical and organic chemistry courses. This book is an invaluable text to students takingbiological , bioorganic, organic and structural chemistry courses. It is also of interest to biochemists and molecular biologists, as well as professionals with in medicine and the pharmaceutical industry.
A comprehensive introduction to this dynamic area of chemistry, which equips chemists for the task of understanding and studying the underlying principles behind the functioning ofbiological macro molecules, macromolecular lipid assemblies and cells
Covers many basic concepts and ideas associated with the study of the interface between chemistry and biology
Clearly written and richly illustrated in full colour
