About this Book<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Biochemistry is a foundational discipline that explains life at the molecular level, integrating principles of chemistry and biology to elucidate the structure, function, and regulation of biomolecules. A clear understanding of biochemical concepts is essential for undergraduate students of Life Sciences, as it forms the basis for advanced studies in molecular biology, genetics, biotechnology, medicine, and environmental sciences.
\nThe present book, Foundations of Biochemistry: Structure, Function and Regulation, has been developed with the objective of providing a systematic, concept-oriented, and syllabus-aligned learning resource for B.Sc. undergraduate students. The content is carefully structured to support learners in developing both theoretical understanding and analytical insight into biochemical processes that govern cellular function and metabolism.
\nThe book is organized into four comprehensive units. The initial unit introduces the fundamental principles of biochemistry, chemical composition of living cells, carbohydrates, and cellular energy metabolism, including major pathways such as glycolysis, the TCA cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. The second unit focuses on lipids and nucleic acids, emphasizing their structural diversity and biological
\nsignificance. The third unit is devoted to proteins and enzymes, covering amino acid chemistry, protein organization, enzyme mechanisms, and regulatory aspects. The final unit addresses nucleic acids and gene expression, providing an overview of DNA and RNA structure, replication, transcription, genetic code, and mutations.
\nThroughout the book, emphasis has been placed on clarity of concepts, logical progression of topics, and relevance to undergraduate curricula. The language has been kept precise and accessible, with topics presented in a structured manner to aid comprehension and examination preparation. The collaborative efforts of the contributing authors have ensured that the content is academically sound, up-todate, and student-friendly.
\nIt is hoped that this book will serve as a reliable textbook for undergraduate students and a useful reference for educators, fostering a deeper appreciation of biochemistry and its integrative role in understanding biological systems.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
