,Preface



A
s humans, we are adept learning machines. Long before a baby learns
that she can change a sheet of paper by crumpling it, she is absorbing
vast amounts of information. This learning continues throughout life in
myriad ways: learning to ride a bike and to take social cues from friends; learning
to drive a car and balance a checkbook; learning to solve a quadratic equation
and to interpret a work of art.
Of course, much of learning is necessary for survival, and even the simplest
organisms learn to avoid danger and recognize food. However, humans are
especially gifted in that we also acquire skills and knowledge to make our lives
richer and more meaningful. Many students would agree that reading novels
and watching movies enhance the quality of our lives because we can expand our
horizons by vicariously being in situations we would never experience, reacting
sympathetically or unsympathetically to characters who remind us of ourselves
or are very different from anyone we have ever known. Strangely, at least to us
as science professors, science courses are rarely thought of as being enriching or
insightful into the human condition. Larry Gould, a former president of Carleton
College, was also a geologist and an Arctic explorer. As a scientist, teacher, and
administrator, he was very interested in science education especially as it related
to other disciplines. In his inaugural address when he became president he said,
“Science is a part of the same whole as philosophy and the other fields of learn-
ing. They are not mutually exclusive disciplines but they are independent and
overlapping.” Our goal was to write a book that encourages students to appreci-
ate biochemistry in this broader sense, as a way to enrich their understanding of
the world.

New to this Edition
This third edition takes into account recent discoveries and advances that have
changed how we think about the fundamental concepts in biochemistry and
human health. To meet the needs of instructors and students alike, particular
attention has been paid to the topics outlined below.

Expanded Physiological Focus
A hallmark feature of Biochemistry: A Short Course is its physiological perspective
on biochemical processes and its integration of clinical examples to apply and
reinforce concepts. In the third edition, we build on this aspect of the book with:
• A NEW section: “Mutations in Genes Encoding Hemoglobin Subunits Can
Result in Disease” (Chapter 9)
• 17 new Clinical Insights, demonstrating the relevance of biochemistry to
human health and disease.

forms a scaffold for the nucleus and may take part in
the regulation of gene expression. The folded

to remove the farnesyl group leads to such dramatic consequences.

Molecular oxygen is an ideal terminal electron acceptor because its high
affinity for electrons provides a large thermodynamic driving force. However,
the reduction of O2 can result in dangerous side reactions. The transfer of four
electrons leads to safe products (two molecules of H2O), but partial reduction
generates hazardous compounds. In particular, the transfer of a single electron

Teaching and Learning Tools
In addition to providing an engaging contextual framework for the biochemis-
try throughout the book, we have created several opportunities for students to
check their understanding, reinforce connections across the book, and practice
what they have learned. These opportunities present themselves both in features
throughout the text and in the many resources offered in LaunchPad.

ACTIVE LEARNING RESOURCES
In this new edition, we’ve responded to instructor requests to provide
resources that aid in creating an active classroom environment. All of the new
media resources for Biochemistry: A Short Course will be available in our new
system. For more information on LaunchPad see page ix. To
help students adapt to an interactive course, we’ve added the following resources:

NEW Case Studies are a series of online biochemistry case studies that
are assignable and assessable. Authored by Justin Hines, Assistant Professor of
Chemistry at Lafayette College, each case study gives students practice in work-
ing with data, developing critical thinking skills, connecting topics, and applying
knowledge to real scenarios. We also provide instructional guidance with each
case study (with suggestions on how to use the case in the classroom) and aligned
assessment questions for quizzes and exams.

NEW Clicker Questions are aligned with key concepts and misconceptions
in each chapter so instructors can assess student understanding in real time dur-
ing lectures.

END-OF-CHAPTER PROBLEMS
Each chapter includes a robust set of practice problems. We have revised and
added to the total number of questions in the third edition.
• Data Interpretation Problems train students to analyze data and reach
scientific conclusions.
• Chapter Integration Problems draw connections between concepts across
chapters.
• Challenge Problems require calculations, understanding of chemical
structures, and other concepts that are challenging for most students.
Brief solutions to all the end-of-chapter problems are provided in the
“Answers to Problems” section in the back of the textbook. We are also pleased
to offer expanded solutions in the accompanying Student Companion, by Frank
Deis, Nancy Counts Gerber, Richard Gumport, and Roger Koeppe. (For more
details on this supplement see page x.)

MARGIN FEATURES
We use the margin features in the textbook in several ways to help engage stu-
dents, emphasize the relevance of biochemistry to their lives, and make it more
accessible. We have given these features a new look to make them clearer and
more easily identifiable.

Media and Supplements
All of the new media resources for Biochemistry: A Short Course are available in
our new system.
www.macmillanhighered.com/launchpad/tymoczko3e
LaunchPad is a dynamic, fully integrated learning environment that brings
together all of our teaching and learning resources in one place. It includes
easy-to-use, powerful assessment tracking and grading tools, a personalized
calendar, an announcement center, and communication tools to help you man-
age your course. This learning system also contains the fully interactive e-Book
and other newly updated resources for students and instructors, including the
following:

For Students
• Case Studies are a series of online biochemistry case studies that are
assignable and assessable. Authored by Justin Hines, Assistant Professor of
Chemistry at Lafayette College, each case study gives students practice in
working with data, developing critical thinking skills, connecting topics, and
applying knowledge to real scenarios.
• e-Book allows students to read the online version of the textbook, which
combines the contents of the printed book, electronic study tools, and a full
complement of student media specifically created to support the text.
• Hundreds of Self-Graded Practice Problems allow students to test their
understanding of concepts explained in the text, with immediate feedback.
• Metabolic Map helps students understand the principles and applications of
the core metabolic pathways. Students can work through guided tutorials with
embedded assessment questions, or explore the Metabolic Map on their own
using the dragging and zooming functionality of the map.
• Problem-Solving Videos, created by Scott Ensign of Utah State University,
provide 24/7 online problem-solving help to students. Through a two-part
approach, each 10-minute video covers a key textbook problem representing a
topic that students traditionally struggle to master. Dr. Ensign first describes a
proven problem-solving strategy and then applies the strategy to the problem
at hand in clear, concise steps. Students can easily pause, rewind, and review
any steps they wish until they firmly grasp not just the solution but also the
reasoning behind it. Working through the problems in this way is designed to
make students better and more confident at applying key strategies as they solve
other textbook and exam problems.
• Living Figures allow students to view textbook illustrations of protein
structures online in interactive 3-D using Jmol. Students can zoom and rotate 54
“live” structures to get a better understanding of their three-dimensional nature
and can experiment with different display styles (space-filling, ball-and-stick,
ribbon, backbone) by means of a user-friendly interface.
• Self-Assessment Tool allows students to test their understanding by taking
an online multiple-choice quiz provided for each chapter, as well as a general
chemistry review.
• Animated Techniques illustrate laboratory techniques described in the
text.
