I've yet to see a definition of molecular biology that doesn't overlap with biochemistry. The two are nearly identical sciences. The closest I've found to a meaningful distinction is that molecular biologists are biologists and biochemists are chemists. Molecular biologists concern themselves with the biological processes; the cells, the tissues, the organisms. Biochemists are more about the chemicals
Biochemistry is the study of chemical processes within and relating to living organisms. By controlling information flow through biochemical signaling and the flow of chemical energy through metabolism, biochemical processes give rise to the complexity of life.Molecular biology is a branch of science concerning biological activity at the molecular level. The field of molecular biology overlaps with biology and chemistry and in particular, genetics and biochemistry. and, Genetics is the study of genes, heredity, and genetic variation in living organisms. It is generally considered a field of biology, but it intersects frequently with many of the life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems.
The closest I've found to a meaningful distinction is that molecular biologists are biologists and biochemists are chemists.
In Biocehm the study of structure, nature and function of chemicals found in living organisms is done while in mol bio the of molecules found in living organisms like glucose proteins lipids are studied.
biochhemistry delas with chemical properties of biological substances and their interaction where molecular biology deals with effect of specific molecules like how cell become cancerous cell, how add substances to make a cell etc.
biochemists, able to understand the structure, function and evolution of macromolecules that form the foundation of the structure, operation and programming of the living;
cellular and molecular biologists who understand how cells interact, how they grow, adapt, differentiate and die.
biochemistry is branch of chemistry which study reactions inside our bodies but molcular biology study reactions between molcules such as DNA, RNA, and how the reactions occure in the cellular level.
Biochemistry primarily deals specifically with the chemical interactions that take place within biological systems, for eg Krebs Cycle would be studied under biochemistry; whereas molecular biology takes into consideration the biological entities (such as organelles) involved as well, for eg Mutagenesis would come under molecular biology
Biochemistry explores the chemical processes within and outside of the cell while molecular biology studies the cell at molecular level
biochmesitry is bransh of chmesitry which study reactions inside our bodies but molcular biology study reactions between molcules such as dna ,rna
Biochemistry is a branch of science which helps us to study the chemical process occurring inside a living organism by studying their biosignaling pathway whereas molecular biology is the basis of biological activity between biomolecules in the various systems of a cell, including the interactions between DNA, RNA and proteins and their biosynthesis.
