About This Book
Widely praised for its strong biochemistry coverage and clear, easy-to-follow explanations and figures, Becker's World of the Cell provides a beautifully-illustrated, up-to-date introduction to cell biology concepts, processes, and applications. Informed by many years of classroom experience in the sophomore-level cell biology course, the dramatically-revised Ninth Edition introduces molecular genetics concepts earlier in the text and includes more extensive coverage of key techniques in each chapter. Becker's World of the Cell provides accessible and authoritative descriptions of all major principles, as well as unique scientific insights into visualization and applications of cell and molecular biology.
KEY TOPICS: Introduction to Cell Biology; Cells and Organelles; The Chemistry of the Cell; The Macromolecules of the Cell; Bioenergetics: The Flow of Energy in the Cell; Enzymes: The Catalysts of Life; Membranes: Their Structure, Function, and Chemistry; Transport Across Membranes: Overcoming the Permeability Barrier; Chemotrophic Energy Metabolism I: Glycolysis and Fermentation; Chemotrophic Energy Metabolism II: Aerobic Respiration; Phototrophic Energy Metabolism: Photosynthesis; The Endomembrane System and Protein Trafficking; Cytoskeletal Systems; Cellular Movement: Motility and Contractility; Beyond the Cell: Cell Adhesions, Cell Junctions, and Extracellular Structures; The Structural Basis of Cellular Information: DNA, Chromosomes, and Genome Organization; DNA Replication, Repair, and Recombination Gene Expression I: The Genetic Code and Transcription; Gene Expression II: Protein Synthesis and Sorting; Regulation of Gene Expression; Molecular Biology Techniques; Signal Transduction Mechanisms I: Electrical and Synaptic Signaling in Neurons; Signal Transduction Mechanisms II: Messengers and Receptors; The Cell Cycle; Sexual Reproduction; Cancer MARKET: For readers interested in molecular biology.
