Biochimie structurale (Structural Biochemistry) is the study of the molecular architecture of biological molecules—primarily carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids—and how their specific structures determine their biological functions. 1. Fundamental Biomolecules

: Two units joined by glycosidic bonds (e.g., sucrose, lactose).

: Focuses on the building blocks of life. Properties of the 20 standard amino acids.

: Focused on classification and nomenclature. Key topics include:

: Sites like ResearchGate provide PDF chapters covering cell composition and amino acids.
