This module aims to provide students with a good understanding of cellular biology and molecular biology that is essential in underpinning many areas of biological studies and the information processing pathways in the cell that lead to the expression of the genetic information encoded in DNA._x000D_

The cellular biology part of this module introduces students to a range of core concepts relating to the structure and function of eukaryotes and prokaryotes. It addresses both the important components of the cell and their role in the context of diverse biological phenomena, including growth and development, division and signaling, thereby integrating important aspects of physiology, pharmacology, biochemistry and genetics._x000D_
_x000D_
The molecular biology part of this module introduces the structures and functions of the major components involved in genetic information processing pathways; proteins and nucleic acids, will be explained. DNA replication and its mutation, transcription and translation and how gene expression is regulated will be introduced._x000D_
