Discover the uses and production of monoclonal antibodies. Links to additional resources regarding these molecular antigens.

This digital textbook covers core biology concepts and includes interactive features, real-world examples, videos, and study guides.

A collection of video lectures from an introduction to biology course taught at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The course covers fundamental topics like biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology with thirty-four...

Discover new knowledge about molecular biology- how molecules fit together as a lock and key. This has given researchers new diagnostic tools that use immune cells from mice to produce antibodies to detect a specific virus or bacterium.

This is an article describing the life and discoveries in molecular biology of Max Delbruck.

Microscopic images, detailed information, and illustrated diagrams help explain DNA and molecular genetics in this college-level textbook.

Through full-color images and concise information, learn about adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, the molecular unit of energy currency of cells.

This lesson plan focuses on differences in the amino acid sequence of hemoglobin and myoglobin proteins. They use the number of differences to create a phylogenetic tree.

Online biology textbook discussing the chemical nature of water, and the importance of its molecular structure to life. Also discusses at length the organic molecules nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates.

Interactive resource provides a problem set in which you will work with the types of genetic and biochemical information used to unravel the inner workings of the lac operator-repressor regulation system. Correct answers are reinforced...

Learn the roles of DNA polymerases and other replication enzymes. Understand the leading and lagging strands and Okazaki fragments.

Learn about the ELISA test in this learning module. Explore how the Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) test can be used to see if certain antigens are present.

This lesson plan requires students to analyze DNA restriction maps to determine the differences in the sequence for several primates and humans. They then use the information to create a cladogram.

This is a lesson designed by a biology teacher. In it, students use maps and evidence of island age, molecular genetics, morphology, and distance apart to determine how the islands came to be occupied by different species of lizards. It...

Visualize the main driving force behind molecular biology, where DNA makes RNA, and RNA makes protein. [1:53]

Explains the goals of the Human Genome Project. It also explains some of the ethical, legal and social challenges associated with this new technology.

(This lesson is for a more advanced class such as honors or AP Biology.) The lesson will look at one of the most important tools to the molecular biologist, PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction). The students will learn the science behind PCR...

Tutorial examines how a cell divides to make two genetically identical cells and explores the four basic phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Tutorial explains the steps of bacterial binary fission which is the process that bacteria use to carry out cell division.
