Stryer Biochemie

by Jeremy M. Berg

Diese vollst ndig berarbeitete Neuauflage weist all die innovativen konzeptionell-didaktischen und herausragenden gestalterischen Eigenschaften auf, die die fr heren Auflagen zu Bestsellern gemacht haben - die au erordentliche klare und pr zise Art der Darstellung, die Aktualit t, das elegante, lockere Layout -, und greift in gewohnt verst ndlicher Form auch die j ngsten Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der Biochemie auf. Die jahrelange Erfahrung der Autoren in der Lehre ist im gesamten Buch sp rbar. Das Werk veranschaulicht den "Kern" der Biochemie - die Schl sselkonzepte und Grundprinzipien -, schl gt Br cken zwischen verschiedenen Befunden und Untersuchungsans tzen und offenbart damit letztlich sowohl die molekulare Logik des Lebendigen als auch die Bedeutung der Biochemie f r die Medizin. Die Studierenden werden in der 6. Auflage vor allem folgende Neuerungen und Verbesserungen zu sch tzen wissen: st rkere Betonung der Biologie -- das neu konzipierte Kapitel ber H moglobin f hrt jenes einfache, zentrale Strukturbeispiel wieder ein, das als experimentelles Modell schon ein Klassiker ist, aber heute erneut in den Blickpunkt der Forschung gelangt -- physiologische Aspekte werden deutlicher hervorgehoben, insbesondere im Hinblick auf die allt glichen Bedingungen der Stoffwechselregulation (etwa: k rperliche Aktivit t vs. Ruhe, S ttigung vs. Hunger); neue Grafiken zur metabolischen Integration verkn pfen ber verschiedene Kapitel hinweg Stoffwechselwege miteinander, die bei bestimmten Aktivit ten, etwa beim schnellen Laufen, zeitgleich aktiv sind leichterer Zugang -- ausgewogenere Pr sentation verschiedener Typen der Darstellung molekularer Strukturen (Kalotten, B nder etc.) -- die gegen ber der Vorauflage ver nderte Integration evolution rer Aspekte erleichtert das Lernen und Lehren des Stoffs (das alte Kapitel 2 wurde eliminiert und die umfassende Behandlung der Evolution auf Kapitel 6 verschoben, wenn die Studierenden besser darauf vorbereitet sind) -- selektiv umorganisierte Inhalte helfen dem Lernenden zu einem besseren Verst ndnis; so ist das Kapitel 14 zur Signaltransduktion nun dem Kapitel ber Membranen nachgeordnet, und das Kapitel zur Integration des Stoffwechsels beschlie t die Darstellung der metabolischen Prozesse, statt in den molekularbiologischen Teil eingegliedert zu werden aktualisierte Darstellung -- ein g nzlich neues Kapitel zur Wirkstoffentwicklung (Kapitel 35) greift faszinierende j ngere Fallstudien auf, an denen die Studierenden die Schl sselrolle der Biochemie f r die Entwicklung neuer Medikamente nachvollziehen k nnen -- die durchgehende berarbeitung aller Kapitel bringt die Studierenden an die vorderste Front moderner biochemischer Forschung ________________ Um Biochemie zu lernen, bietet seit jeher der "Stryer" den einfachsten und klarsten Weg an. Die jetzt vorliegende 6. Auflage ist durchg ngig berarbeitet und auf den neuesten Stand gebracht. Sie enth lt nicht nur ein v llig neues Kapitel zum Thema "Wirkstoffentwicklung," sondern tr gt auch durch zahlreiche weitere Ver nderungen aktuellen wissenschaftlichen und diaktischen berlegungen Rechnung. So bleibt dieses Lehrbuch das Standardwerk vor allem f r Biologen und Mediziner. Das klassische Proteinforschungsbeispiel H moglobin nimmt wieder eine angemessene Stellung ein, in den Stoffwechselkapiteln sind die physiologischen Verh ltnisse sowie die Regulation und Vernetzung der Stoffwechselprozesse noch st rker ber cksichtigt, die Behandlung der Signaltransduktion schlie t sich nun direkt den Membrankapiteln an, die Evolutionsaspekte sind durchg ngig integriert. S mtliche schematischen Abbildungen sind in punkto Anschaulichkeit und Verst ndlichkeit optimiert worden. Teil I f hrt in bew hrter Weise in die Sprache der Biochemie und die Struktur biologischer Molek le ein. Die folgenden drei Teile widmen sich den drei in der Evolution entscheidenden Herausforderungen: der Umwandlung verschiedener Energieformen ineinander, der

One of the best Biochemistry books that I have read including classroom assigned literature and self-discovered books. The layout and content of this book is very efficient and enjoyable to both newbies to the science genre and life long scientists. The authors do a great job of conveying lifetimes of scientific information to the masses in both an educational and stimulating approach. The information is very thorough and up-to-date in the field of Biochemistry. Reading this book with such captivating material in this engaging format was definitely a memorable experience in my education.

[Maia Lanfranco · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is a must for any students following an undergraduate course which includes study units in biochemistry. It presents the various biochemical concepts and processes very clearly, making them much easier to understand by the reader. Convenient summaries at the back of each chapter make it easier to revise a chapter quickly while still highlighting all of the important points in that particular chapter. A very helpful book which will definitely be a great aid to me during my university years and beyond. :)

Not as much fun as Lehninger's. I used it primarily for the review questions rather than read it from cover to cover.

[Simeon Lazarus Hubbard · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of the most dependable Biochemistry books out there. Only rivalled by Voet.

Finally done with this one

[anastasia]

may God bless the man who shall not be named i will never ever ever see you again and i could not be happier! extra thanks to stryer for this amazing book(fyi the metabolism chapter is bad you really should work on it) also i will not give all credits to this book for passing biochem because FFUL pull trough com aquela sebenta! extra thanks to ju that had to memorize all the enzymes names which btw very fucked up🥳🫶🏻

Great book for learning Biochemistry!🤩

[Anum · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book helped me a lot through my course in Biochemistry. There was only one issue with this book! It was too heavy to carry around! LOL

Otherwise, it was very well organised and quite well-written with all the pictures and illustrations to help with the understanding of some basic concepts in biochemistry. :)

[Agnes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book!
I greatly appreciated the paragraphs that were given titles that reflected the topic in that paragraph. It helped to study: one could just read the title and consider re-studying the item or checking it off as "OK, I know that". My edition had an error in the DNA polymerases, which transpired during my exam. I suppose (hope) my professor passed it on.

The best Biochem Book out there!

[Christine Ricci · Rating 4 out of 5]

It's pretty easy to understand, but sometimes it glosses over topics that it shouldn't.

The book was my Bible a few years ago ;)

[Bharat Bhardwaj · Rating 4 out of 5]

One of the best book for any life science student, easy language and explanation.

[Hannah Olson · Rating 3 out of 5]

A bit dense at times definitely need caffeine to make it through a chapter. Wouldn’t recommend for a pleasure read. Could use better transitions.

[Ct.Ln · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beautiful, quasi-exhaustive document. Seminal text for biochemistry, Undergrad Bible, A crisis report of eternal strife. Jeering spite of taking shape against all odds which seek to liquify one beyond recognition.
No respite for everything which flows against forces which seek to halt. Cosmic, thermodynamic violence, a high-wire act over the abyss of entropy.
Life exists between complete disorder, which is death, and complete order, which is death again.

[Edma · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked this book, because it had explained the concepts in a simple and attractive way. Was a good help for some crucial knowledge I had to refresh.

[Dutchess Gi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great study book, with good questions to help you learn.
No answers to check yours unfortunately.

תכלס זה כתוב טוב ומעניין ומסביר הרבה יותר טוב מהמרצה שלי אבל סבלתי אז 3 כוכבים והחלטתי שקראתי מספיק מזה בשביל להכניס את זה ליעד קריאה.

This review is of the third edition. Considering that it was published more than 20 years ago and we have seen revolutionary changes in biotechnology in those two decades, this review may not be applicable to later editions, and it is difficult to judge this book by contemporary standards.

Biotechnology has advanced rapidly, but the underlying biochemistry has not changed, of course, and Stryer is an excellent text to learn it from. I am not a biochemist, and this is the book that convinced me I should not be one. But still, as a student I enjoyed reading this book more than any other chemistry textbook. Stryer does a great job of presenting not just the factual information, but some details about the experiments that were used to discover it, which makes it fascinating for any reader with a good chemistry background and an interest in chemical biology.

This book predates whole-genome sequencing, proteomics, RNA interference, and many other modern topics. Although these are not biochemistry, per se, and needn't really affect the presentation of the citric acid cycle, a biochemistry text with any mention of them whatsoever is bound to feel dated. So this text's time has come and gone, and I'm sure there are better options out there. But it's still a solid source for the fundamentals for those of us who still have it on our shelves.
