Biochemistry & metabolism
This book is one of a series developed for undergraduate medical students that fully integrates basic science, clinical medicine, and surgery featuring clinical cases, graphic narratives, and a selection of learning tools. The book comprises 260 pages, divided into 9 chapters. Each chapter starts with pre-assessment questions or a clinical case that helps to engage the reader and focus on the i...
متن کاملBiochemistry and genetics of PCB metabolism.
Biphenyl(BP)-utilizing bacteria, which include both Gram-negative and Gram-positive strains, are ubiquitously distributed in the environment. These bacteria co-metabolically degrade a variety of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners to the corresponding chlorobenzoic acids through 2,3-dioxygenation. Certain strains degrade even highly chlorinated PCBs through 3,4-dioxygenation. The ring meta...
متن کاملDietary fats and membrane function: implications for metabolism and disease.
Lipids play varied and critical roles in metabolism, with function dramatically modulated by the individual fatty acid moities in complex lipid entities. In particular, the fatty acid composition of membrane lipids greatly influences membrane function. Here we consider the role of dietary fatty acid profile on membrane composition and, in turn, its impact on prevalent disease clusters of the me...
متن کاملA Quick Look at Biochemistry: Lipid Metabolism
Lipids are a group of naturally occurring compounds and hydrophobic or amphiphilic molecules that form structures such as vesicles, liposomes or membranes in an aqueous environment. They are a large and diverse group of organic macromolecules; hence, it is always difficult for scientists to provide a specific definition for the word “lipid”. Therefore, due to the absence of a widely-accepted de...
متن کاملSome aspects of the metabolism and biochemistry of vitamin A.
The metabolism of vitamin A Formation of retinof, retinyl esters and retinal. Dietary provitamins and vitamin A are sources of tissue deposits of retinol, retinyl esters and retinal; the latter substances constitute a storage and transport system (Ganguly, 1960) which allows a continuous supply of the active form of the vitamin to be provided at whatever site it is required. T h e alcohol, alde...
