Molecular Biology

Molecular Biology is the field of biology that studies the structure, function, and interactions of essential biological macromolecules, including DNA, RNA, and proteins, which govern cellular processes and the flow of genetic information. It investigates fundamental mechanisms such as gene expression, DNA replication, transcription, translation, and cellular regulation, providing critical insights into how genetic information is stored, transmitted, and utilized within living organisms. Techniques such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), sequencing, cloning, electrophoresis, and CRISPR-based gene editing allow precise analysis and manipulation of nucleic acids and proteins, enabling researchers to explore molecular pathways and cellular functions. Molecular biology has extensive applications in genetics, biotechnology, medicine, pharmacology, and functional genomics, supporting advances in disease diagnosis, therapeutic development, personalized medicine, and molecular research. By integrating principles from chemistry, genetics, and cell biology, molecular biology enhances our understanding of life at the molecular level and drives innovation in research, clinical practice, and biotechnology.
