REALISATION MECHANISMS OF HEREDITARY INFORMATION AS A KEY PROBLEM OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF THE CELL
- Keywords
- molecular biology, realization of hereditary information
- Abstarct
- Molecular biology is a relatively young and fastest growing field of science. Meanwhile, discussions continue on the feasibility of teaching molecular biology at medical universities. Problem areas in understanding the mechanisms of implementation of hereditary information in the cell are shown, the understanding of which will allow a different look at the nature of many diseases and will give the «key» to personalized medicine. The role of «dark» DNA in the genome, the principles of methods for analyzing the functioning of genes are discussed. The importance of obtaining basic knowledge in the field of molecular biology of the cell by practitioners is justified. Molecular biology is a relatively young and fastest growing field of science. Some unsolved problems of molecular biology are presented to outline the prospects of fundamental science in diagnostics and treatment of diseases. Problem areas in understanding the mechanisms of hereditary information evidence in the cell are discussed; the realizing of the latter allows interpreting the nature of many diseases in a new way and gets a ‘key’ to the development of personalised medicine. The role of ‘dark’ DNA in the genome and the principles of analysing the genes functioning are considered. The importance of obtaining basic knowledge in the field of molecular biology of the cell by medical practitioners is substantiated.
