Recommended Reading
The laboratory manual will be provided in Quercus. There is no required textbook for this course. Frequent reference is made to original papers.
We are also recommending the book “Fundamental Laboratory Approaches for Biochemistry and Biotechnology”, A.J. Ninfa and D.P. Ballou (Fitzgerald Scientific Press, 1998) as a resource book.
An optional resource book is “Modern Experimental Biochemistry”, R. Boyer, 3rd Edition (Benjamin Cummings, 2000).
