  1. Biochemistry

    Linked via "nucleic acids"

    Biochemistry is the fundamental discipline situated at the intersection of biology and chemistry, concerned with the chemical substances and vital processes occurring within living organisms. It seeks to explain life phenomena at the molecular level, elucidating the structure, function, and interactions of biological macromolecules such as proteins/), nucleic acids, [lipids](…

  2. Biochemistry

    Linked via "deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)"

    The field emerged prominently in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, initially focusing on the isolation and characterization of biomolecules derived from foodstuffs, such as the discovery of "zymase" by Eduard Buchner in yeast extracts, which demonstrated that chemical reactions could occur outside of intact cells [1]. Early biochemistry was heavily focused on vitalism, the belief that organic compounds possessed a unique "…

  3. Biochemistry

    Linked via "Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)"

    Nucleic Acids
    Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) store and transmit genetic information. DNA, typically double-stranded, utilizes deoxyribose sugar and the nitrogenous bases adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). RNA employs [ribose](/entries/rib…
