WileyPLUS is a powerful online tool that provides instructors with an integrated suite of teaching and learning resources in one, easy-to-use website.
WileyPLUS is organized around the essential activities you perform in class:
Prepare and Present
- Stepped Art PowerPoint slides, including all figures from the text
- Customizable presentations
Study and Practice
- A complete HTML version of the textbook
- Embedded links in the text to other related sections of the text, figures, and clinical correlations
- Animated figures
- Guided explorations with a narrated script
- Interactive Exercises
- Questions and answers for each chapter with links to the relevant sections of the text
- An HTML Bibliography for each chapter with links to related websites
Assignment
- Practice Quiz assignments, derived from the end-of-chapter questions in the text. Each quiz includes approximately 14 questions, and each question includes a link to relevant text sections
- Coming August 2006: Test bank containing over 2700 multiple choice questions, many derived from question banks compiled by the Association of Medical and Graduate Departments of Biochemistry

Index.
- Fully Updated with significant revision of all chapters and major topics
- Two new chapters, “Fundamentals of Signal Transduction” and “Cell Cycle, Programmed Cell Death, and Cancer” have been added
- A glossary that explains important biochemical terms
- New topics on the Basal Lamina Protein Complex and Molecular Motors
-
Best of all, professors who adopt the Sixth Edition and students who purchase the text, will have access to WileyPLUS, a powerful online tool that provides instructors with an integrated suite of teaching and learning resources in one easy-to-use website.
- Over 250 Clinical Correlations highlighting the significance of the biochemistry to clinical conditions and diseases
- Multiple choice questions are included at the end of each chapter to test knowledge of the topic
- More than 1,200 high-quality, full-color illustrations
- A concise appendix reviewing important organic chemistry concepts
- Key Terms presented in bold face highlight essential information, guiding students as they study
"This is an excellent teaching volume, which could readily be used not only be undergraduates and graduate students but also by fellows in clinical chemistry training programs." (Clinical Chemistry, October 2006)
"Recommended as a primary teaching text in Biochemistry courses: noted for its depth and organization, well-written and grand in scope, the chapters moving at a perfect pace to give the student a lasting lesson in the biochemical processes." (Electric Review, September/October 2006)
"...comprehensive and...appropriately updated. It should continue to help medical students see the relevance of biochemistry to medicine, which will only increase during their future careers. (Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, May/June 2006)
