Fundamentals of Biochemistry III - Information Pathways

by Henry Jakubowski and Patricia Flatt

Read here Read at LibreTextsPDF

We explore the biochemistry of informational macromolecules (DNA, RNA, and proteins), key players in the Central Dogma of Biology. We use molecular models to facilitate an understanding of structure/function relations. In addition, we explore reaction mechanisms for converting the information in DNA into RNA and then into proteins. This material is usually studied in molecular biology courses.
