Class of 2027 - Block 3: BIOCHEMISTRY

Biochemistry List

BIOCHEMISTRY

Primary – (Required):

Abali et. al Biochemistry, 8th ed. Lippincott’s Illustrated Reviews: Biochemistry, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2021.  Online at LWW Health.

        

Lippincott is an excellent review text that doesn’t cover some topics in sufficient depth. In previous years, we have required a complete biochemistry text. You are strongly encouraged to use a complete text, but we are not assigning one this year, in response to comments from the SCME and because many of you have a text from your undergraduate studies. We have included readings from Devlin’s “Textbook of Biochemistry” for some sessions because these were listed in prior years when this was a required text. If you use another text, it is up to you to find the relevant readings. 

We can also suggest an online text:  Kennelly, PJ, et al. Harper’s Illustrated Biochemistry. 32nd edition. McGraw-Hill Education, 2023. ISBN: 978-1-260-46994-3; Online at AccessMedicine.

Stryer, L. Stryer’s Biochemistry, 9th ed., W. H. Freeman, 2019.

HEC. QU 4 S928b9 2019 (9th ed.)

8th ed. ISBN: 978-1464126109

Supplemental:

Devlin, T. Textbook of Biochemistry with Clinical Correlations, 7th ed. Wiley & Sons, 2011.

HEC/Allen Reserve: QU 4 T355t7 2011

Other comprehensive biochemistry texts are acceptable, (Stryer, Voet and Voet, Lehninger, etc)
