Does Biochemistry have future ? Is it losing popularity ? Does it have scope for jobs? Many lifescience subjects have branched off from Biochemistry, viz., molecular biology, nutrition, biotechnology etc. Each of them have become a separate branch with much deeper studies done in them.
Therefore, the question is - Is it true that Biochemistry is becoming extinct with its sister subjects taking the center stage? (Something like evolution of animals)

Biochemistry scares me ?!
Is biochemistry losing its popularity among the prospective students?
I have a feeling that many of them are a bit scared about the subject - be they belong to nursing, pharmacy, nutrition, medicine etc.
Is this true ?

Master Biochemistry in 24 hours.
The content in this package (once you buy) is good for preparation especially just before exams. You can master biochemistry in 24 hours. It covers all the basic topics, with flash movies, cheat sheets, and quizzes. Each chapter is alloted 1 hour for studying and 24 chapters in 24 hours. either you can study one chapter a day or all of them in one week, depending on the pace and the time you have for your exams.
Master Biochemistry in 24 hours
Good Luck.

The Visual Impact of Gossip - E. Anderson et al.
Negative gossip about a person renders that person’s face more visible to the onlooker.
AMPK Is a Direct Adenylate Charge-Regulated Protein Kinase
The adenosine monophosphate (AMP)–activated protein kinase (AMPK) regulates whole-body and cellular energy balance in response to energy demand and supply. AMPK is an αβγ heterotrimer activated by decreasing concentrations of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and increasing AMP concentrations. AMPK activation depends on phosphorylation of the α catalytic subunit on threonine-172 (Thr172) by kinases LKB1 or CaMKKβ, and this is promoted by AMP binding to the γ subunit. AMP sustains activity by inhibiting dephosphorylation of α-Thr172, whereas ATP promotes dephosphorylation. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), like AMP, bound to γ sites 1 and 3 and stimulated α-Thr phosphorylation. However, in contrast to AMP, ADP did not directly activate phosphorylated AMPK. In this way, both ADP/ATP and AMP/ATP ratios contribute to AMPK regulation.
