Explore the chemical processes within living organisms through interactive simulations
Biochemistry is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes and substances that occur within living organisms. It combines biology and chemistry to study the molecular mechanisms that underlie life processes, including cellular metabolism, genetic information flow, and molecular interactions.
Biochemistry investigates the structure and function of biomolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids, as well as the chemical reactions they participate in. It provides the molecular foundation for understanding how cells work, how energy is produced and utilized, and how genetic information is stored and expressed.
Biochemical principles guide drug discovery, development, and understanding of therapeutic mechanisms.
Biochemistry enables genetic engineering, fermentation, and development of bio-based products.
