About this ebook

The study of biochemistry, particularly the exploration of biomolecules and metabolic pathways, stands at the crossroads of various scientific disciplines, including biology, chemistry, and medicine. This book, Biomolecules and Metabolic Pathways: Fundamentals, Bioenergetics, and Genetic Information Processing, is an effort to synthesise the vast and complex knowledge in these fields into a cohesive and comprehensive guide. It is designed to serve as a valuable resource for students, educators, and professionals who seek to deepen their understanding of the biochemical processes that underpin life itself. The genesis of this book lies in recognising the critical role that biomolecules play in the maintenance of life and the intricate web of metabolic pathways that sustain cellular function. Biomolecules ranging from simple carbohydrates and lipids to complex proteins and nucleic acids are the building blocks of life, each with unique structures and functions that contribute to the overall dynamics of biological systems. The exploration of these molecules is not merely an academic exercise; it is a journey into the very essence of life, where each discovery offers insights into the fundamental processes that govern health, disease, and evolution. One of the primary aims of this book is to present the fundamental concepts of biomolecules and their metabolic pathways in a manner that is both accessible and rigorous. The initial chapters provide a foundational understanding of the structure and function of biomolecules, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of metabolic pathways. These pathways, which include the breakdown and synthesis of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, are presented with a focus on their biochemical significance and their relevance to human health and disease. The discussion of metabolism is enriched with insights into bioenergetics, the study of energy flow through living systems, which is critical for understanding how organisms’ harness and utilize energy to sustain life.
