Molecular Biology is a clearly defined and recognised academic discipline that integrates biochemistry, genetics and cell biology, providing an understanding of biological processes at the molecular level. Applications of molecular biology include the diagnosis of inherited gene defects, somatic gene therapy, the production of transgenic crops, forensic DNA profiling, the development of novel vaccines, the use of plants as 'bio factories' to produce pharmaceutically active compounds and the development of new drugs to fight cancer.
