[edit]

This article might be improved by adding information such as the development of PCR and Sanger sequencing and their real world applications, as well as how they have helped popularize biochemistry in media (particularly television).

Dubious assertion

[edit]

The article claims that "the history of biochemistry spans approximately eight centuries" without anything solid to substantiate it. What is claimed about Arabs' interest in metabolism is not really biochemistry as we know it, further more the idea that history of biochemistry started then is also completely unsourced. Something more solid is needed to make such definitive statement that the history of biochemistry actually started at that time when we know that many ancient people were interested in the processes of life.

Additional Information on DNA Discovery and Codon Code

[edit]

This article could benefit by adding information on the discovery of the structure of DNA by Watson and Crick, and how the structure of DNA helped to influence research into the biochemistry of DNA replication. Other information that could benefit this article is the research done into solving the codon chart for translation and how that information influenced laboratory procedures for experimentation with protein synthesis and molecular genetics.

How are substrates related to enzymes? Maybe add more information on how they work together. LeahToomey (talk) 07:03, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
