Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology

Online version of the book by David M. Glick. Compiles nearly 3000 terms - some appear only in earlier literature, some very current, some are common terms invested with new meanings, some are lab jargon - and gives succinct definitions to them. The explanations assume a basic familiarity with the biosciences, and should therefore be useful to advanced students and to workers in related fields who wish to converse with other biochemists or molecular biologists in their native tongue.
