1. Introduction
Biochemistry is a necessary subject for the study of life substance by chemical methods and theories. The main task is to understand the chemical composition, structure and chemical changes in the life process, from the early stage of the study of the overall composition of the organism to the precise analysis of various tissue and cell components. Spectral analysis, isotope labeling, X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy and other physical and chemical technology are being used presently to analyze important biological macromolecules (such as proteins, nucleic acids, etc.) were analyzed in order to illustrate a variety of these biological macromolecules and their structural relationship specific.
Biochemistry is the science that studies the chemical basis of the life process. The occurrence and development of the disease is the interference and destruction of the pathogenic factors to the life process. The prevention and cure of the drug is the intervention of the pathological process. Biological chemical by chemical basis of the chemical theory and method study life phenomenon and life process, by exploring intervention and adjustment to illness development mechanism and drug discovery provides essential theoretical basis.
2. Classification
According to different biological objects, biochemistry can be divided into animal biochemistry, plant biochemical, microbiological and biochemical, insects and others.
In terms of the organisms of different tissues or process as the research object, biochemistry can be divided into muscle biochemical, neural and biochemical, immunological and biochemical, biological force energy study.
According to the different materials, it can be divided into protein chemistry, nucleic acid chemistry, and enzyme and so on. To study the chemical of various natural substances called bio organic chemistry. The study of the biological functions of various inorganic compounds is called bio inorganic chemistry or inorganic biochemistry.
Biological chemistry and other disciplines fuse and produce frontier disciplines such as biochemical pharmacology, ancient biochemistry, chemical ecology; or according to the different application fields, biochemistry can be divided into medical biochemistry, agriculture biochemistry, industrial biochemistry, nutrition biochemistry, etc.
