Reference Book: "Principles of Physical Biochemistry" by van Holde / Johnson / Ho  - Printice Hall - either 2nd Edition (2006; ISBN 0-13-046427-9) or the 1st Edition (1998; ISBN # 0-13-720459-0 (recommended / not required)   

    Textbook:  To a large extent the course will be based on class notes.  A text is available for those who want the added reference.  In addition to the course text, several books that support the course content will be on reserve in the chemistry library, including "Physical Biochemistry" by Cantor & Schimmel and "Nucleic Acid Structure" by W. Saenger.  A set of lecture notes will be posted as we go thru the course.  The lectures and summary notes will cover all the material that you will be responsible for on exams.  Notes in PDF format are easy to read and print but require Adobe Acrobat Reader.  Use the link to get a free copy of this useful software. 

    CH370 has a substantial writing component and fulfills part of the basic writing requirement for a degree from UT-Austin.  See the bullets on BLAST and "Writing Assignments" for more information.
