Abstract
Molecular biology is the study of molecular interactions and structures that
govern cellular processes. Biotechnology is an interdisciplinary field that utilizes
biological systems to create new products and technologies. The application of
molecular biology in biotechnology has revolutionized the way we understand and
manipulate biological systems. This technology has enabled the development of new
diagnostic tools, therapies, and drugs. The ability to manipulate DNA and RNA
sequences has also allowed the creation of genetically modified organisms with
desirable traits, including crops and animals. In addition, molecular biology has
facilitated the development of gene therapy, where defective genes are replaced or
repaired, and vaccines, where specific antigens are identified and synthesized.
Integrating molecular biology and biotechnology has opened up vast opportunities for
research and innovation in many fields, including medicine, agriculture, and
environmental science. As a result, the application of molecular biology in
biotechnology holds great promise for the future of science and technology.
