About the Book

Biochemistry of Metabolic Processes provides an in-depth exploration of the biochemical pathways that regulate metabolism in living organisms. The book covers key metabolic processes such as glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and lipid metabolism, examining how cells convert nutrients into energy and essential molecules for growth and repair. It also explores the role of enzymes, cofactors, and metabolic regulation in maintaining homeostasis. Additionally, the book highlights the integration of metabolic pathways in different tissues and the impact of metabolic disorders. With a focus on both the fundamental biochemistry and its clinical implications, this volume is a valuable resource for students, researchers and professionals in biochemistry, molecular biology and related fields.

Scope

This book provides a detailed exploration of the biochemical pathways and processes involved in metabolism. It covers the structure and function of metabolic pathways, the regulation of metabolic processes, and the role of enzymes and cofactors in metabolic reactions.
