Title: Foundations of chemical biology
Description: "Chemical Biology is a subject born out of a desire to understand the molecular basis of life. This book introduces the fundamental chemistry of the molecules that are essential to all cells. The molecules covered include amino acids and sugar phosphate derivatives, and the macromolecules derived from them (proteins and nucleic acids respectively), and the phospholipids and their derivatives that form the basis of biological membranes.

Important concepts concerning the intrinsic chemistry of these molecules are presented, providing the fundamental ideas relating to the chemistry of life that can be applied to more advanced aspects of chemical biology."--BOOK JACKET.
