New discoveries in genetics, molecular, and cell biology are not only enhancing our understanding of the etiology and progression of disease, but are finding applications in the development of new drugs or the implementation of new kinds of therapy. This book provides an in-dept…
This first volume contains data on amino acids which consists of the coefficients of solubility in water, heat capacities, entropies of formation, and heats of combustion. Specific gravity liquids, sucrose solution, CsCI solution isokinetic glycerol and sucrose gradients for den…

Published in 1975: This volume contains the completed section of the Handbook of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology with data pertaining to Lipids, Carbohydrates, and Steroids.
"Reactions in biochemistry can be explained by an understanding of fundamental organic chemistry principles and reactions. This paradigm is extended to biochemical principles and to myriad biomolecules. Biochemistry: An Organic Chemistry Approach provides a framework for underst…
Atherosclerosis, the forerunner of cardiovascular diseases, is regarded as the main cause of mortality, with an age-related rise in prevalence. It is defined as a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory illness that causes a pathological thickening of arterial walls, obstructing bl…
Over the past decades, an immense pandemic of obesity has been developing across the world, in part due to an overabundance of food that is available 24/7. While in ancient history a major need existed to store spare energy for times when food was scarce, the energy-conserving a…
Cysteine proteases cathepsins are lysosomal enzymes that regulate numerous lysosomal functions but were also appreciated for their extra-lysosomal activities and their contribution to various pathologic conditions. Given the diversity in cathepsin function, we set out to explore…
The purpose of this study is to manufacture structured lipids by enzymatic and chemical interesterification of tallow with corn, canola and safflower oils individually and to investigate the effects of several process parameters on various chemical and physical properties of str…
Gangliosides are sialic acid containing biomolecules and perform important functions by locating on cell membranes. Their catabolism regulated by sialidases while their synthesis was performed by glycosyltransferases. Neu3 reacts with gangliosides on plasma-membrane and acts in …
