Rex Montgomery, David Chappell, Thomas W. Conway, Arthur A. SpectorObra que proporciona una idea exacta y rigurosa de cómo la bioquímica influye en la salud y la enfermedad, dando la información que un estudiante debe saber de bioquimica en un contexto clinico. En sus paginas se trata la nutricion, el papel de los enzimas en el diagnostico medico, la coagulacion de la sangre, el ciclo de la urea, los neurotransmisores, las lipoproteinas y la quimioterapia contra el cancer. La sexta edicion posee como gran novedad los numerosos recursos pedagogicos que se han introducido a lo largo de todo el libro, como las ilustraciones, la rapida visualizacion de los conceptos clinicamente relevantes, los objetivos al principio de cada capitulo y especialmente un nuevo diseño de la obra, con un formato de dos columnas, lo que permite poner la misma informacion en menos paginas.

Molecular Cloning has served as the foundation of technical expertise in labs worldwide for 30 years. No other manual has been so popular, or so influential. Molecular Cloning, Fourth Edition, by the celebrated founding author Joe Sambrook and new co-author, the distinguished HHMI investigator Michael Green, preserves the highly praised detail and clarity of previous editions and includes specific chapters and protocols commissioned for the book from expert practitioners at Yale, U Mass, Rockefeller University, Texas Tech, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Washington University, and other leading institutions. The theoretical and historical underpinnings of techniques are prominent features of the presentation throughout, information that does much to help trouble-shoot experimental problems. For the fourth edition of this classic work, the content has been entirely recast to include nucleic-acid based methods selected as the most widely used and valuable in molecular and cellular biology laboratories. Core chapters from the third edition have been revised to feature current strategies and approaches to the preparation and cloning of nucleic acids, gene transfer, and expression analysis. They are augmented by 12 new chapters which show how DNA, RNA, and proteins should be prepared, evaluated, and manipulated, and how data generation and analysis can be handled. The new content includes methods for studying interactions between cellular components, such as microarrays, next-generation sequencing technologies, RNA interference, and epigenetic analysis using DNA methylation techniques and chromatin immunoprecipitation. To make sense of the wealth of data produced by these techniques, a bioinformatics chapter describes the use of analytical tools for comparing sequences of genes and proteins and identifying common expression patterns among sets of genes.

Building on thirty years of trust, reliability, and authority, the fourth edition of Molecular Cloning is the new gold standard--the one indispensable molecular biology laboratory manual and reference source.

This book is meant to provide an in-depth understanding of the molecular biology of selenium and how this element makes its way into protein. Selenium is an essential trace element in the diet of humans and many other life forms. It plays an important role in preventing certain forms of cancer, heart disease and other cardiovascular and muscle disorders. Evidence points to numerous other health benefits including an indispensable function in development, male reproduction and the immune system. In addition, selenium serves as an antiviral agent and may delay the onset of AIDS in HIV positive patients and delay the aging process. The emphasis of this book is on the current status of the molecular biology of selenium. The importance of this element in human health is also highlighted. Features the many new discoveries have occurred since the 1st edition on Selenium was published in 2001 New investigators who have made important contributions to the field have been added as chapter authors

Con la idea de facilitar la comprensión de los procesos y mecanismos vitales a los estudiantes de las licenciaturas y diplomaturas de Medicina, Biología, Farmacia y Química, y nacidos de la experiencia como profesores de la materia, han surgido estos libros de Bioquimica. En la Bioquimica Estructural se han descrito las sustancias, sus propiedades y las funciones que realizan en el organismo y en la Bioquimica metabolica, se estudian las transformaciones de las sustancias que sirven para proporcionar energia y a su vez, otras sustancias necesarias para un funcionamiento normal del organismo.

This is the premier, single-source reference on redox biochemistry, a rapidly emerging field. This reference presents the basic principles and includes detailed chapters focusing on various aspects of five primary areas of redox biochemistry: antioxidant molecules and redox cofactors; antioxidant enzymes; redox regulation of physiological processes; pathological processes related to redox; and specialized methods. This is a go-to resource for professionals in pharmaceuticals, medicine, immunology, nutrition, and environmental fields and an excellent text for upper-level students.
