Introduction to Molecular Biology, Genomics and Proteomics for Biomedical Engineers - Robert B. Northrop - Bog

A unique introductory text, this book is written for engineers and scientists with little background in molecular biology, genomics, and proteomics, who are working with, or planning to work with, living systems. The authors assume familiarity with basic calculus, physics, and linear algebra. They describe the very complex biochemical relations that permit life to exist, highlighting the specialized organic molecules in living organisms, and how they interact and react. This is a professional primer, not intended as a replacement for formal, in-depth course work, but intended to broaden the background and pique the interest of those new to this area.
