Essential Biochemistry, International Adaptation by Charlotte W Pratt

Essential Biochemistry, International Adaptation by Charlotte W Pratt

Essential Biochemistry, 5th edition, comprises biology, pre-med, and allied health topics and presents a broad, but not overwhelming, base of biochemical coverage that focuses on the chemistry behind biology. This text relates the chemical concepts that scaffold the biology of biochemistry, providing practical knowledge and many problem-solving opportunities to hone skills. Key Concepts and Concept Check features help students identify and review important takeaways in each section. This international adaptation contains up-to-date coverage of topics, including Ramachandran diagrams, lysozymes, steroid hormones, and ionophores. It also offers integrated coverage of SARS-CoV-2 and the impacts of COVID-19, relating it to the importance of an interdisciplinary response to a global pandemic. By focusing on strengthening the organization of the content as well as updating the end-of-chapter problems, this edition presents a brand-new experience to the reader.

CHARLOTTE PRATT received a B.S. in biology from the University of Notre Dame and a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Duke University. She is a protein chemist who has conducted research in blood coagulation and inflammation at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is currently Associate Professor in the Biology Department at Seattle Pacific University. Her interests include molecular evolution, enzyme action, and the relationship between metabolic processes and disease. She has written numerous research and review articles, has worked as a textbook editor, and is a co-author, with Donald Voet and Judith G. Voet, of Fundamentals of Biochemistry, published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

KATHLEEN CORNELY holds a B.S. in chemistry from Bowling Green (Ohio) State University, an M.S. in biochemistry from Indiana University, and a Ph.D. in nutritional biochemistry from Cornell University. She is currently the Robert H. Walsh '39 Endowed Professor in Chemistry and Biochemistry at Providence College, where she has focused on expanding the use of case studies and guided inquiry across a broad spectrum of classes. Her interest in active pedagogy has led to her involvement in national programs including Project Kaleidoscope, the POGIL Project, and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute SEA PHAGES program, which has also fueled her current experimental research in phage genomics. She has been a member of the editorial board of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education and has served for several years as coordinator of the undergraduate poster competition at the annual meeting of the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
