Molecular biology is a branch of biology that focuses on understanding biological processes at the molecular level, particularly the interactions between various cellular systems involving DNA, RNA, and proteins. It combines principles from genetics, biochemistry, and cell biology to explore the mechanisms that govern the function and regulation of genes and how they translate into cellular processes.
