Title: Introduction to Module - Molecular Biology
Course: BTEC-1100-301-302-303-F21 > Section: Module 2 - Molecular Biology

In this module you will be learning about the main processes involved in the central dogma, which is the flow of information from genes to proteins. All of these content pages contain information that will guide you through the entire process.

At the end of this module you will take Exam 2.

In this module you'll learn:

- Define genome.
- Describe the structure and function of nucleic acids.
- Explain replication.
- Explain transcription.
- Explain translation.
- Explain why plasmids are important in the field of biotechnology.
- Explain how the different DNA sequences of a plasmid work to clone a gene and express a protein.
- Explain how the steps in cloning a gene relate to the central dogma.
