Medical Biochemistry notes directly from the lectures and course material, integration with laboratory practicals and workgroups.

These notes are meant to provide a structured and efficient review of Amino Acid metabolism and disorders for medical students. In these notes I have covered the metabolism of Phenylalanine, tyrosine, glycine, methionine, and tryptophan. I have compiled them so they are concise, to the point, easy to read, memorise, and retain. I have also included the synthesis of specialised products formed from these amino acids. Hopefully you will find them very helpful in your studies
