A further examination of how molecules function in cellular processes. Vitamins and minerals are critical for human health, and yet few people know why they are so important for our bodies. Hormones control everything from sugar metabolism (diabetes), to sexual maturation (estrogen and testosterone), to bone density and growth (BMPs), but how these key chemicals control cells is often misunderstood. This guide will explain these topics in molecular detail for everyone interested in nutrition, molecular biology, medicine, and health. Sections include Enzymes & Enzyme Regulation, Energetics & Metabolic Pathways, Hormones, Membranes & Signaling, and Replication & Central Dogma. 6-page laminated guide includes: Enzymes & Enzyme Regulation Enzyme Terms Catalytic Models Drugs & Inhibition Enzyme Regulation Vitamins & Minerals Energetics & Metabolic Pathways ATP Reduction & Oxidation Oxidation of Glucose Gluconeogenesis 5-Carbon Sugar Biosynthesis Lipid Metabolism & Fatty Acid Biosynthesis Amino Acid Biosynthesis Nucleic Acid Biosynthesis Photo Synthesis Membrane Proteins & Membrane Signaling Membrane Transporters/Pumps Membrane Channels G-Protein Receptors Protein Kinase Receptors Steroid Receptors & Signaling Second Messengers Replication & Central Dogma DNA Replication DNA to RNA RNA Processing Suggested Uses: Students -- Science related degrees are hard enough, so get the tools that make it easier to do quick reviews of must-know answers that could give that extra boost to your GPA Professors -- Adopt our Biochemistry 1 and Biochemistry 2 guides for your course, where the combined price is less than any supplementary study book available
