Summary

This book provides a survey of current biochemistry and molecular biology in the form of a dictionary. It contains short but informative entries arranged under more than 17,000 headwords, providing fundamental information that is often difficult to locate in today's overspecialized world. The book defines many of the terms used in molecular biology and describes the essential features of over 2,000 enzymes and proteins, including the reactions they catalyze or functions they perform, with filenames that facilitate the location of entries in databases of sequences. Many entries describe chemical compounds of relevance to biochemists, with approximately 950 symbols and abbreviations. In addition, many physico-chemical laws, constants, and formulae are detailed.
