Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to structural and metabolic biochemistry for students in life and health sciences. It first explains the molecular foundations of living organisms, including chemical bonds, functional groups, carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, peptides, proteins, enzymes, and nucleic acids. The second part presents the main principles of metabolism, with emphasis on bioenergetics and the biochemical pathways involved in carbohydrate, lipid, peptide, and protein metabolism. It also introduces the biological importance of vitamins and hormones, highlighting their roles in cellular regulation and organismal function. Through clear explanations, figures, and tables, the book connects molecular structure with biological activity and metabolic regulation. It aims to support learners in understanding essential biochemical concepts and applying them to biological, medical, and scientific contexts.
