Reviews"As part of the Instant Note series, ranging from topics on plant biology, bioinformatics and medicinal chemistry, the notes satiate the intellectual thirst by serving up bite-sized chunks of synopsized biochemistry. ...these notes could make the difference between an average degree and a very good degree. In a market where notes series abound, this one raises its polar headgroup above the membranous parapet and stands out as essential reading for the biochemistry undergraduate." The Biochemist, July 2012
