Protein Biochemistry
Protein Biochemistry: a scientific field dedicated to the study of proteins, complex chains of amino acids which make up the building blocks of all living organisms. Proteins are responsible for everything from the physical structure of an organism to the activities of the nervous system, making them of critical interest to people working in the biosciences.
