Ask a child what interests them about biology and you will not find (in most cases anyway) a child interested in DNA and molecular biology, but rather a child wanting to know about dinosaurs, wooly mammoths, and creatures more at home in J.R.R.
The Central Dogma of molecular biology states that: DNA makes DNA (replication); DNA makes RNA (transcription) and RNA directs the synthesis of proteins (translation).
Hybridisation Used in molecular biology to describe the process of annealing one strand of a polynucleotide (DNA or RNA), the probe, to a strand of complementary sequence (again either DNA or RNA), the target.
Current efforts in molecular biology are producing an abundance of data that provides exciting opportunities for knowledge discovery, as well as an increasing problem of information overload.
