Interesting Website

http://www.wiley.com/college/boyer/0470003790/animations/animations.htm


A website I discovered online is an interactive website created by a company who has also published a biochemistry textbook. The John Wiley and Sons Publishers Company placed their second edition of their Boyer textbook online, entitled “Concepts of Biochemistry”. This website has easy access to their entire text book among many other educational pages organized for the user's efficiency. The most interesting aspect of this website is their interactive tutorials. It may seem a slight elementary due to the cartoon factor, but the animations are very helpful in understanding different biochemical processes. One section goes into detail about proteins folding, comparing it to everyday analogies for better understanding. It also goes into detail about the six different major types of metabolism. The amount of material and information found within this website is outstanding and I would recommend it to anybody struggling in class or on a specific subject in biochemistry.
