DNAやRNA、遺伝子制御やタンパク質合成、オミックス、植物生化学などをカバーするテキスト。代謝などのキー概念は最初の導入だけでなく、他の箇所でも繰り返し説明し、相互参照することでパターンを構築し、学生にとって新しい知識が長期記憶に残りやすい構成。データ解析や研究評価を含む生命科学で必須の問題解決や論証のスキルにも重点を置く。This textbook covers DNA, RNA, gene regulation, synthetic proteins, omics, plant biochemistry, and more. Key concepts such as metabolism, are introduced and then revisited and cross-referenced throughout the text to establish pattern recognition and help students commit their new knowledge to long-term memory. Emphasis is also laid on problem-solving and reasoning skills essential to life sciences, including data analysis and research assessment.
