Klappentext zu „Functional Metabolism “
Functional Metabolism of Cells is the first comprehensive survey of metabolism, offering an in-depth examination of metabolism and regulation of carbohydrates, lipids, and amino acids. It provides a basic background on metabolic regulation and adaptation as well as the chemical logic of metabolism, and covers the interrelationship of metabolism to life processes of the whole organism. The book lays out a structured approach to the metabolic basis of disease, including discussion of the normal pathways of metabolism, altered pathways leading to disease, and use of molecular genetics in diagnosis and treatment of disease. It also takes a unique comparative approach in which human metabolism is a reference for metabolism in microorganisms and plant design, and presents novel coverage of development and aging, and human health and animal adaptation. The final chapter reviews the past and future promise of new genetic approaches to treatment and bioinformatics.This, the most exhaustive treatment of metabolism currently available, is a useful text for advanced undergraduates and graduates in biochemistry, cell/molecular biology, and biomedicine, as well as biochemistry instructors and investigators in related fields.

Pressezitat
"What distinguishes this book form some others is the thoroughness and breadth of its treatment of subjects, its authority, its academic approach, and the sense of excitement that it engenders." ( Annals of Biomedical Engineering , June 2006)"...is true to the fundamentals and recent developments in metabolic research and points the way to future, deeper convergence of metabolism and genetics." (A merican Journal of Human Biology , July/August 2005)
"...this book offers a wide menu of interesting biology...it is a highly recommended read for anyone interested in integrative biology." ( Clinical Biochemistry , June 2005)
"Storey and other contributors...have created an exceptional volume, looking at this process and its effect on living beings." ( E-STREAMS , April 2005)
"...valuable reading for students and researchers alike. It established an essential integrative and comparative mentality...and is an encyclopedic source for researchers..." (T he Journal of Experimental Biology , March 2005)
