The textbook is Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry Fourth Edition
by Nelson and Cox, available in the Bookstore.
Lectures will be derived from a variety of sources,
including the suggested textbook.
The Metabolism lectures formerly found in the 6-hour
version of GBCH601 are now available in a separate 2-hour course, GBCH603-Metabolism, to be taught in the Spring
Semester
