Now in its sixth edition, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology provides the perfect balance between detail and conceptual understanding. Maintaining the much-praised clarity of previous editions, this edition incorporates both new techniques and pivotal discoveries in a succinct, easy-to-digest way, using updated figures and diagrams to help explain complex processes. Updated content on the manipulation of DNA and genes reflects the rapid introduction of new methods in contemporary research, and incorporates up-to-date discussions of recent developments such as gene editing. Chapter summaries are logically laid out, forming bulleted lists which provide students with a consolidation of difficult concepts and progressively guide them through the specifics whilst keeping the big picture in mind. Additional 'find out more' sections provide helpful problem-solving support and the further reading is divided into types to cater for broader learning needs. With an integrated approach covering both biochemistry and molecular biology, complemented by frequent diagrams and clear explanations, and all presented in a wider cellular context, this text is the perfect introduction for any student new to the subject. Online Resources: The online resources to accompany this text include: For registered adopters of the book: · Figures from the book available to download For students: · Further reading organised by chapter · An extensive bank of multiple-choice questions to support self-directed learning · Links to 3D molecular structures in Protein Data Bank

Biological Science: Exploring the Science of Life responds to the key needs of lecturers and their students by placing a clear central narrative, carefully-structured active learning, and confidence with quantitative concepts and scientific enquiry central to its approach.Written by a team of dedicated and passionate academics, and shaped by feedback from over 55 institutions, its straightforward narrative, reinforced by key concept overview videos for every chapter, communicate key ideas clearly: the right information is provided at the right time, and at the rightdepth.Its pause and think features, self-check quizzes, and graded end of chapter questions, augmented by flashcards of key terms, directly support active learning. The combination of narrative text and learning features promote a rich, active learning experience: read, watch, and do.Its combination of Quantitative Toolkits, Scientific Process panels, and the Life and its Exploration chapters provide more insight and support than any other general biology text; they prepare students to engage with this quantitative and experimental discipline with confidence, and set them on apath for success throughout their future studies.With coverage that spans the full scale of biological science - from molecule to ecosystem - and with an approach that fully supports flexible, self-paced learning, Biological Science: Exploring the Science of Life will set you on a path towards a deeper understanding of the key concepts inbiology, and a greater appreciation of biology as a dynamic experimental science.Digital formats and resourcesBiological Science: Exploring the Science of Life is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats.The enhanced ebook is enriched with features that offer extra learning support: www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/ebooks- Key concepts videos support students from the start of every chapter and as they make their way through every Module.- Self-check questions at the end of each chapter section give students quick and formative feedback, building their confidence and comprehension as they study and revise.- Quantitative skills video screencasts help students to master the foundational skills required by this discipline.- Interactive figures give students the control they need to step through, and gain mastery over, key concepts.- Per-chapter flashcard glossaries help students to recall the key terms and concepts on which further study can be built.

Now in its fifth edition, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology features a new author team, who have retained the much-praised clarity of previous editions, while adding a greater focus on biomedical issues and incorporating a discussion of recent developments in research. A new chapter on the general principles of nutrition emphasizes the key principles underlying complex metabolic pathways, enabling students to appreciate an integrated view of human metabolism and nutrition. The fifth edition also features a new chapter on the control of gene expression reflects our increasing understanding of the importance and power of gene regulation. Presented in a broader cellular context and featuring an integrated approach covering both biochemistry and molecular biology, this text is complemented by frequent diagrams. It is the perfect introduction for any student new to the subject. New to this Edition --A new Chapter 9, "General Principles of Nutrition," enables students to understand the key principles underlying complex metabolic pathways --A new Chapter 26, "Control of Gene Expression" reflects the increasing emphasis on gene regulation in contemporary research --A strengthened biomedical focus provides extra context to the processes and concepts being described --Two new authors, Alison Snape and Despo Papachristodou, bring additional teaching and research experience in biochemistry and molecular biology to the book
