Biomolecules are organic molecules produced by living organisms that are primarily composed of carbon hydrogen nitrogen and oxygen. This book discusses the general concepts of various biomolecules with reference to structure function metabolism and biological sequence. Designed as an introductory course in biomoleules the book elucidates the various molecules in the biological system like nucleic acids Proteins enzymes carbohydrates lipids and water and explores their mechanism of action and metabolism in an easy to follow style with self explanatory diagrams and flowcharts.
