Molecular Biology and Genetics

What is the specialty of Molecular Biology and Genetics:

Molecular biology studies biology at the molecular level, so it overlaps with both microbiology and chemistry in several branches and intersects with biochemistry and genetics in several areas and disciplines. Molecular biology is concerned with the study of the various interrelationships between all cellular systems, especially the relationships between deoxyribonucleic acid (deoxyribonucleic acid), RNA (ribonucleic acid) and the protein synthesis process, in addition to the mechanisms of regulation of this process and all vital processes.

History of Molecular Biology and Genetics:

The history of molecular biology begins in the 1930s with the fusion of diverse physical and biological fields: biochemistry, genetics, microbiology, virology, and physics. With the aim of understanding life at a very basic level, many physicists and chemists have also taken an interest in molecular biology.
