Molecular Biology

This document summarises the fundamentals of the DNA primary structure. It describes the basic structure of a nucleotide, DNA vs RNA structure, nucleotide polymerisation, and RNA hydrolysis.

Role of Recombinant DNA technology to improve life Recombinant DNA technology is the technique or method through which we can isolate and clone the single copy of gene or DNA segment into multiple copies which are all identical. The recombinant DNA molecules are then introduced into the host cells machinery where they propagate and multiply, this method or technique is referred as Recombinant DNA technology.

Highly detailed notes with diagrams and images on gene regulation, targeting 1st or 2nd year biologists and biochemists who wish to have an in-depth knowledge in that area. This first part of this document explains the importance of gene regulation, the principles and components behind gene regulation. Then moving on to the architecture and differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes gene regulation and some experimental methods in identifying the cis and trans regulatory elements. The second...
