Molecular biology recap for biotechnology

Document preview thumbnail
Vista previa 1 fuera de 3 páginas

This document contains a recap of prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA replication, transcription, translation, PTM, gene expression and expression regulation. It is a short recap you can use to learn about these topics or use it as a refresher for the BMR course Biotechnology. For the summary/notes, I used the book from the course molecular biology.
