6. IMPORTANCE OF BIOCHEMISTRY
IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
It is important to understand biochemistry in order
to understand drugs function
many drugs exert their influence by
example altering cell chemistry, or
biochemistry

8. IMPORTANCE IN TREATMENT
OF CANCER
many diseases, such as cancer, can be described in terms of
biochemical changes in the cell
if you can determine the
that lead to changes in
biochemical changes that led
gene expression and cell
physiology
to some disease state
design drugs to targe those changes
reverse the disease state and restore
health
