Type: Topic
GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY
It is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes within and related to living organisms.
Title: ENZYMES
ENZYMES
Enzymes are proteins that act as biological catalysts.
Title: CARBOHYDRATE CHEMISTRY
CARBOHYDRATE CHEMISTRY
Carbohydrate chemistry is a subdiscipline of chemistry mainly concerned with the detection, synthesis, structure, and function of carbohydrates.
Title: PROTEIN CHEMISTRY
PROTEIN CHEMISTRY
Proteins are organic compounds which are formed of amino acids that are linked together by peptides.
Title: LIPID CHEMISTRY
LIPID CHEMISTRY
The lipids are a heterogeneous group of compounds, including fats, oils, steroids.
Title: DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION OF CARBOHYDRATES AND PROTEINS
DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION OF CARBOHYDRATES AND PROTEINS
Carbohydrates and proteins are the major nutrients the body needs for growth, repair, movement, and maintaining tissue and organ function.
Title: CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM
CARBOHYDRATE METABOLISM
Carbohydrate metabolism is a fundamental biochemical process that ensures a constant supply of energy to living cells.
Title: DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION OF LIPIDS
DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION OF LIPIDS
Lipid digestion and absorption are complex processes. They involve soluble enzymes, substrates with different degree of solubility, and occur primarily in the stomach and small intestine.
Title: LIPID METABOLISM
LIPID METABOLISM
Lipid metabolism entails the oxidation of fatty acids to either generate energy or synthesize new lipids from smaller constituent molecules.
Title: PROTEIN METABOLISM
PROTEIN METABOLISM
"Protein metabolism denotes the various biochemical processes responsible for the synthesis of proteins and amino acids (anabolism), and the breakdown of proteins by catabolism.
