DNA’s chemical cousin, RNA, was the messenger that carries DNA instructions from the double helix in the cell’s nucleus to ...

But it was not so thick as to obscure the molecular structure. The resulting pictures, which Biophysicist Griffith painstakingly developed himself to bring out maximum detail, show a blurred image ...

DNA—> RNA—> Protein—> Phenotype The dogma was enshrined in Jim Watson’s 1965 epic textbook The Molecular Biology of the Gene.

After half a century, the implications of the double helix keep rippling outward; the tools of molecular biology have forever transformed the life sciences. The New Annotated and Illustrated Edition ...

Watson wanted to make molecular biology a major recipient of NIH and NCI funding, but without the government directing the research.
