Contents:
Systems and their surroundings -- State functions and the laws of thermodynamics -- Energetics and chemical equilibria -- Thermodynamics of transport processes -- Electrochemistry -- Reaction velocities and rate laws -- Integrated rate laws for uni- and bimolecular reactions -- Reaction types -- Rate-limiting steps -- Binding reactions: one step- and two-step binding -- Steady-state (enzyme) kinetics -- Complex reaction schemes and their analysis -- Temperature dependence of rate constants -- Principles of catalysis -- Molecular structure and interactions -- Proteins -- Nucleic acids -- Computational biology -- Optical spectroscopy -- Magnetic resonance -- Solution scattering -- X-ray crystallography -- Imaging and microscopy -- Force measurements -- Transient kinetic methods -- Molecular mass, size, and shape -- Calorimetry -- Prefixes, units, constants -- Mathematical concepts used in this book.
Summary: "Biophysical Chemistry explores the concepts of physical chemistry and molecular structure that underlie biochemical processes. Ideally suited for students of life sciences, but equally accessible to students and scientists in related fields, the book concisely describes the fundamental aspects of biophysical chemistry, and puts them into a biochemical context. The book is organized in four parts, covering thermodynamics, kinetics, molecular structure and stability, and biophysical methods. Cross-references within and between these parts emphasize common themes and highlight recurrent principles. End of chapter problems illustrate the main points explored and their relevance for biochemistry, enabling students to apply their knowledge and to transfer it to laboratory projects"-- Provided by publisher.
