Selected chapters from enzymology, membrane biochemistry and biochemistry of genetic information

This textbook is intended for international students of general medicine studying at Jessenius Faculty of Medicine in Martin. It follows the textbooks Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry I (written by prof. Kaplan), Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry II (edited by prof. Lehotsky) and Medical Chemistry and Biochemistry III (written by author). It covers lectures in Medical Chemistry given in summer semester of the first year of General Medicine at Jessenius Faculty of Medicine in Martin.This text will be followed soon with regular textbook, which will include also figures that should help students to understand described topics.

This text is divided to four chapters.

  1. Enzymes – provides introduction to enzymology, describing mechanism of enzyme action and nature of coenzymes
  2. Biologic membranes – deals with cell membranes with a focus on structure and function of plasma membrane and membranes of intracellular organelles.
  3. Membrane transport – focused on transport of ions and other substances through biologic membranes.
  4. Biochemistry of genetic information – deals with the key processes involved in storage and transmission of genetic information as well as with recombinant DNA methods used in human medicine.
