Ch-06: Molecular Biology
This chapter introduces molecular biology, focusing on the four major biomolecules: proteins (amino acids), lipids, carbohydrates (monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides), and nucleic acids. The iconic double helix structure of DNA is outlined, emphasizing complementary base pairing and its role as the carrier of hereditary information. The single-stranded structure of RNA is compared, explaining its function in translating genetic information into proteins. The central dogma (DNA → RNA → Protein) is briefly summarized.
