The study of molecular biology has widespread applications covering genetic research, drug delivery systems, stem cell therapy and cancer treatment. The functioning of biological systems is based on the flow of genetic information from the nucleotides of the DNA to the RNA leading to the production of various cellular proteins. Thus, control is exercised only by modifying the various stages of protein synthesis. Hence, the ideal approach to the study of the subject is in understanding the genetic processes that are reflected as changes in protein reactions. This book is a comprehensive overview of the subject and is written in a clear and simple language. It also incorporates several student-friendly features. There are numerous illustrations and tables that will enable the readers to grasp the concepts easily. Each chapter begins with Learning Objectives and includes Key Points and Self-assessment Questions. The Further Reading section guides the students towards advanced discussion of the topics. It is hoped that the book will be a valuable textbook to students of biotechnology, genetics and other courses which have molecular biology as a component.

"In the recent past, biotechnology has emerged as an important tool especially in the economic sectors of agriculture, livestock management, human health care and pharmaceutical industries, and for solving environmental and societal issues. As a result, many universities now offer various programmes in biotechnology and related fields. Molecular Biotechnology : Principles and Practices is intended as a student and teacher friendly textbook aimed at providing undergraduate and postgraduate students with a strong base in this emerging and highly promising interdisciplinary science. It strikes a balance between two important aspects of the science--the theory of molecular biology and the experimental approach to the study of biological processes. The main feature of this book is its coverage of a wide range of molecular techniques in biotechnology. Each technique is described conceptually, followed by a detailed experimental account of the steps involved. The topics covered include: Scope of biotechnology. Advanced techniques used in molecular biology and genetics. Gene cloning technology and its applications. Genetic engineering and how it revolutionized biotechnology. Commercial potential of tissue culture technology. Social, economic, and legal issues.".
